Abstract
Lloviu virus (LLOV) is a filovirus that was first identified in 2002 in Schreiber’s bats in Europe. Here, the authors isolate infectious LLOV from Schreiber’s bats in Hungary and show that it can infect human cells in vitro, suggesting potential for zoonotic events. They furthermore detect LLOV RNA in ectoparasites of sampled bats.
