To prevent Nipah virus (Henipavirus) infection in pigs a vaccine has recently been developed but, unfortunately, in countries like Bangladesh, humans are directly infected by the reservoir, a fruit bat species. The changes following globalisation, climatic change [6, 7] , and the opening of previously closed ecosystems, have considerably modified the pattern of endemic (or enzootic) infections/diseases, and contributed to the emergence of new agents that are pathogenic for humans and domestic animals. It is even more true when facing a really emerging disease that moreover is zoonotic such as Nipah virus infection [27] for which no vaccine was available yet, because the causative agent was previously unknown; the only solution is once again to kill and destroy the infected and in-contact animals. ./cache/cord-271076-436nxsua.txt ./txt/cord-271076-436nxsua.txt
