TL;DR: The first worldwide case of Usutu virus (USUV) neuroinvasive infection in a patient with diffuse large B cell lymphoma who presented with fever and neurological symptoms and was diagnosed with meningoencephalitits is reported.

TL;DR: USUV infection in humans is not a sporadic event in the studied area, and USUV neuroinvasiveness has been confirmed.

TL;DR: HHV-6A may be a cause of syncytial giant-cell hepatitis, a rare but severe form of hepatitis that is associated with autoimmune diseases, drug reactions, and viral infections.

TL;DR: The feasibility of DBS testing coupled with automated sample processing, and the use of a latest-generation FDA-approved real-time PCR-based system, represents an encouraging first step for viral load measurement in reference centres in developing countries where access to antiretroviral therapy is expanding.

TL;DR: Type results revealed that two different micro-organisms were simultaneously involved in invasive nosocomial infections in preterm newborns and cross-transmission through handling was probably an important route in this outbreak.
