Beside water- and foodborne viruses, other viral diseases transmitted by vectors, ticks, migratory birds or contaminated surfaces, can lead to serious infections in humans and animals.

Viruses detected in environmental samples include the following: 

1. Influenza viruses (e.g. influenza A/H1N1, H3N2, H5Nx, H9N2, and Influenza B viruses)
2. Coronaviruses (e.g. SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV-2)
3. Alphaviruses (e.g. chikungunya)
4. Flaviviruses (e.g. Dengue virus, Zika virus, Yellow Fever, Japanese Encephalitis, West Nile Encephalitis, West Nile fever, Japanese encephalitis, tick-borne encephalitis)
5. Poxvirus (e.g. Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV))
6. Hantaviruses (e.g. Hantavirus)
7. Phleboviruses (e.g. Rift Valley fever virus)
8. Filoviruses (e.g. Marburg and Ebola viruses)

You can test the virus presence in:

1. Environmental samples
2. Pooled Insects
3. Pooled Ticks
