Study summary
Nonhuman primates (NHPs) constitute an important reservoir of infectious agents, some of which have emerged in human populations as deadly pathogens. Human exposure to the biological fluids of NHPs - particularly through bites - can result in the transmission of several viruses. Only the rabies virus is currently targeted by post-exposure prophylaxis following an injury caused by an NHP.
The objective of the study is to investigate the prevalence of STLV-1 and SFV infections following a nonhuman primate bite.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Study the prevalence of STLV-1 and SFV infections following an NHP bite. — 17 months
Detection of specific antibodies and viral DNA against both viruses in blood.
