Outbreak of Natural Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus Infection in Farmed Minks, China.

We isolated severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) from farmed minks in China, providing evidence of natural SFTSV infection in farmed minks. Our findings support the potential role of farmed minks in maintaining SFTSV and are helpful for the development of public health interventions to reduce human infection.
