Emergence of a New #Pathogen: A Retrospective Study of #HPeV-5 Central Nervous System Disease in #Alberta, #Canada

Source: Viruses, AbstractHuman parechoviruses (HPeVs) are known to cause meningo-encephalitis among neonates and infants. We aimed to describe the epidemiology of HPeVs causing central nervous system infections in Alberta from 2014 to 2019 with comparison of known HPeV-3 and emerging HPeV-5. Genomic analysis was completed on a subset of HPeV-5 strains to…

Characterising molecular #epidemiology of #human #parechovirus in young #infants in #UK and #Canada, J Clin Virol.: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1386653224000775?dgcid=rss_sd_all

Most human parechovirus (#HPeV) infections detected in infants were genotype 3 (HPeV-A3; 57/58 cases). A genotype 5 strain (HPeV-A5) was detected for the first time in U.K. Strains of HPeV-A3 from UK and Canada were phylogenetically interspersed. No association was seen between #severity of disease and HPeV phylogenetic grouping.

I wrote a post about #ebike, #router, #brouter, #EV and #hybrid #HPEV cars, where I ask:

* what are good parameters for ebike routing?
* can we improve elevation data for the road network?
* do you know of restaurants, bars, bakeries, etc. that allow for recharging ebike batteries, even for a fee?

#OpenStreetMap could probably include that info.

I'm open to ideas!
