SARS-COV AND SARS-COV -2 CROSS-REACTIVE ANTIBODIES IN DOMESTIC ANIMALS AND WILDLIFE IN NIGERIA SUGGEST CIRCULATION OF SARBECOVIRUSES

SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV -2 cross-reactive antibodies in domestic animals and wildlife in Nigeria suggest circulation of sarbecoviruses

Anthropogenic exposure of domestic animals, as well as wildlife, can result in zoonotic transmission events with known and unknown pathogens including sarbecoviruses.During the COVID-19 pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 infections in animals, most likely resulting from spill-over from humans, have been documented worldwide.However, only limited information is a

Investigation on the physical mechanism of cavity percentage dependent shear strength for rock joints considering the real contact joint surface

To explain the effect of joint roughness on joint peak shear strength (JPSS) and investigate the effect of different contact states of joint surface on JPSS, we try to clarify the physical mechanism of the effect of joint cavity percentage (JCP) on JPSS from the perspective of the three-dimensional (3D) distribution characteristics of the actual co
