‘Case of Chinese First Human Infection with Monkey B Dies Virus’

Beijing: A veterinarian based in Beijing who was confirmed as a case of Chinese first human infection with Monkey B virus (BV) had died, amid increasing concerns, official media reported.
The 53-year-old Vet was working for institutions that examined non-human primates, showing symptoms of nausea and initial onset vomiting, a month after he dissected two dead monkeys in early March, global time reported by the state on Saturday, citing a language platform English from the control center and disease prevention.
Vet has been seeking treatment in several hospitals, and finally died on May 27, the report said.
His close contact is safe from him, for now, he added.
It was said that there was no fatal BV infection or even clinically proven in China before, thus the case of veterinarian marked the case of the first human infection with BV identified in China.
The researchers had collected cerebrospinal fluids of veterinarians in April and identified him as positive for BV, but the close contact sample suggested negative results for the virus.
Virus, originally isolated in 1932, is Enzootsic Alpharpesvirus in Cauques from the genus Macaca.
This can be transmitted through direct contact and exchanging body secretions and has a 70 percent death rate to 80 percent.
The journal suggests that BV in monkeys might cause potential threats for occupational workers.
It is necessary to eliminate BV during the development of specific pathogenous rhesus colonies and to strengthen supervision in laboratory apes and work workers in China, the report said.
