Journal ArticleDOI
Prolonged survival of Puumala hantavirus outside the host: evidence for indirect transmission via the environment
Eva R. Kallio,Eva R. Kallio,Eva R. Kallio,Jonas Klingström,Jonas Klingström,Elisabeth Gustafsson,Tytti Manni,Antti Vaheri,Heikki Henttonen,Olli Vapalahti,Åke Lundkvist,Åke Lundkvist +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hantavirus transmission does not require direct contact between rodents, or between rodents and humans, and that the indirect transmission of PUUV through contaminated environment takes place among the rodents for a prolonged period of time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host–pathogen time series data in wildlife support a transmission function between density and frequency dependence
Matthew J. Smith,Sandra Telfer,Eva R. Kallio,Sarah J. Burthe,Alex R. Cook,Xavier Lambin,Michael Begon +6 more
TL;DR: This study illustrates how time series data of the host–pathogen dynamics, especially of the number of susceptible individuals, can greatly facilitate the fitting of mechanistic disease models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endemic hantavirus infection impairs the winter survival of its rodent host.
Eva R. Kallio,Eva R. Kallio,Eva R. Kallio,Liina Voutilainen,Olli Vapalahti,Antti Vaheri,Heikki Henttonen,Esa Koskela,Tapio Mappes +8 more
TL;DR: This work examines the effect of Puumala virus (PUUV) infection on the winter survival of bank voles (Myodes glareolus), the host of this virus, to provide the first evidence for a significant effect of PUUV on host survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic hantavirus epidemics in humans--predicted by rodent host dynamics.
Eva R. Kallio,Michael Begon,Heikki Henttonen,Esa Koskela,Tapio Mappes,Antti Vaheri,Olli Vapalahti +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that although human hantavirus epidemics are preceded by high sero prevalence in the host population, they may be accurately predicted solely by the population dynamics of the carrier species, even without any knowledge about hantvirus dynamics in theHost populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cowpox with severe generalized eruption, Finland.
P.M. Pelkonen,Kyllikki Tarvainen,Arja Hynninen,Eva R. Kallio,Heikki Henttonen,Airi Palva,Antti Vaheri,Olli Vapalahti +7 more
TL;DR: Cowpox with a severe, generalized eruption was diagnosed in an atopic 4-year-old girl by electron microscopy, virus isolation, polymerase chain reaction, and immunoglobulin (Ig) M and low-avidity IgG antibodies.
