Serologic Evidence of Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Spillover in Rural Liberia

These findings demonstrate a significant spillover of filoviruses, bunyaviruses, flaviviruses, and alphaviruses in rural Liberia in contrast with an absence of detected outbreaks. These data support the need for enhanced surveillance and understanding of the ecological and behavioral risk factors for zoonotic spillover events, across a spectrum of disease presentation, given their potential and ongoing threat to global public health.
