Ross River Virus Seroprevalence, French Polynesia, 2014-2015
Abstract
Ross River virus (RRV), spread by Aedes and Culex mosquitoes, is the most commonly transmitted arbovirus in Australia. A serosurvey of blood donors in French Polynesia during 2011-2013 suggested that RRV circulated without being detected. We report RRV circulation in French Polynesia based on further screening of blood samples collected during 2014-2015.
Keywords: Arbovirus; French Polynesia; Pacific; Ross River; immunoglobulin G; seroprevalence.
