Langya Virus Outbreak, New Zoonotic Infection in China

A new zoonotic virus called Langya Hennepa (LayV) has been detected in 35 people across China's Henan and Shandong provinces. The virus, which can be transmitted from animals like goats and dogs to humans, causes symptoms such as fever and fatigue. Taiwan's Center for Disease Control is developing nucleic acid testing to monitor the spread, though human-to-human transmission remains unconfirmed.
