Hepatitis E Virus Infections in Free-Ranging and Captive Cetaceans, Spain, 2011-2022.


ABSTRACT: Epidemiologic surveillance of hepatitis E virus in over 300 free-ranging and captive cetaceans in waters off Spain revealed extensive exposure to this pathogen. We suggest the persistent and widespread presence of hepatitis E in the marine environment off the coast of Spain may be driven by terrestrial sources of contamination.
