Infection with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (Bandavirus dabieense) virus poses a substantial public health threat because of its high mortality rates and severe complications. The virus is prevalent in Asia, although data from Thailand are scarce. Our study confirmed the virus in 1.6% of acute febrile illness patients and specific antibodies in 3% of archived samples since 2015 in Thailand. Nationwide zoonotic surveillance identified the virus in 8 rodent species and 4 chigger genera. Our findings underscore the importance of raising awareness among healthcare providers and the general public about the symptoms, risks, and prevention strategies associated with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus infection. Ongoing surveillance of the virus in human and animal populations is essential for monitoring its prevalence, distribution, and potential for emergence.

泰国急性发热性疾病、野生啮齿动物和螨虫幼虫患者严重发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒的综合监测。


严重发热伴血小板减少综合征（bandavirus dabieense）病毒感染因其高死亡率和严重并发症而构成重大公共卫生威胁。该病毒在亚洲流行，尽管来自泰国的数据很少。自 2015 年以来，我们的研究在泰国 1.6% 的急性发热性疾病患者中证实了该病毒，在 3% 的存档样本中证实了特异性抗体。全国人畜共患监测在 8 种啮齿动物和 4 种恙螨属中发现了该病毒。我们的研究结果强调了提高医疗保健提供者和公众对与严重发热伴血小板减少综合征病毒感染相关的症状、风险和预防策略的认识的重要性。在人类和动物种群中持续监测病毒对于监测其流行率、分布和出现的可能性至关重要。
