West-Nijlvirus in Europa : Gastheer vatbaarheid, pathogenese, en interventie studies
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the limited spread of WNV within Europe and to assess whether this virus could actually present a greater risk to Europe in the future. As a result, the following questions were addressed:
1) Are European strains of WNV less virulent than the American strains?
2) Are birds in Europe less susceptible to infection with WNV?
3) Would a vaccine be able to protect against infection with both lineage 1 and 2 WNVs?
