Abstract:Tick-borne viruses remain a substantial zoonotic risk worldwide. The advent of next-generation sequencing has significantly broadened our knowledge of viruses. However, large amounts of sequences in public datasets remain unannotated which could represent unrealised or undocumented viruses. This study aimed to assess whether these novel and other understudied viruses likely represent zoonotic risks and thus deserve further investigation. We ranked the human infection potential of 136 known tick-borne viruses u… Show more
