Journal ArticleDOI

Bas B. Oude Munnink,Reina S. Sikkema,David F. Nieuwenhuijse,Robert Jan Molenaar,Emmanuelle Munger,Richard Molenkamp,Arco N. van der Spek,Paulien Tolsma,Ariene Rietveld,Miranda Brouwer,Noortje Bouwmeester-Vincken,Frank Harders,Renate Hakze-van der Honing,Marjolein C.A.

TL;DR: The SARS-CoV-2 virus was initially introduced by humans and has since evolved, most likely reflecting widespread circulation among mink in the beginning of the infection period, several weeks before detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
SARS-CoV-2 infection in farmed minks, the Netherlands, April and May 2020.

TL;DR: Variations in mink-derived viral genomes showed between-mink transmission and no infection link between the farms, and inhalable dust contained viral RNA, indicating possible exposure of workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation, spread and transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in farmed minks and associated humans in the Netherlands.

TL;DR: In this article, the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic (April 2020) was detected in farmed minks and genomic sequencing was performed on mink farms and farm personnel.

SARS-CoV2 infection in farmed mink, Netherlands, April 2020
Nadia Oreshkova,Robert-Jan Molenaar,Sandra Vreman,Frank Harders,Bas B. Oude Munnink,Renate W. Hakze-vd Honing,Nora M. Gerhards,Paulien Tolsma,Ruth Bouwstra,Reina S. Sikkema,Mirriam G.J.

TL;DR: Variations in viral genomes point at between-mink transmission on the farms and lack of infection link between the farms, and possible exposure of workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Severe acute respiratory infection caused by swine influenza virus in a child necessitating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), the Netherlands, October 2016.

TL;DR: In October 2016, a severe infection with swine influenza A(H1N1) virus of the Eurasian avian lineage occurred in a child with a previous history of eczema in the Netherlands, following contact to pigs.
