1 Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Horses, Hysteria and Hendra Bruce Corney
2 Outline Hendra The virus The disease Laboratory diagnostics Issues for laboratory Historical (hysterical?) perspective Why the increase in Hendra? 2
3 Hendra - the virus Family Paramyxoviridae, subfamily Paramyxovirinae, genus Henipavirus SS RNA enveloped virus Fruit bats natural host (asymptomatic carriers) Occasionally spillovers into horses, more rarely from horses to humans Biosafety level 4 virus PC3 laboratory for PCR PC4 laboratory for propagation 3
4 Hendra the disease From flying foxes Infected body fluids and excretions, spats Also horse - to - horse Incubation period 5-16 days Fever, respiratory or neurological signs Usually rapid progression death > 70% mortality Humans through close contact with infected horses (sick or during post mortems) Frequently fatal Horses can shed virus for approximately 2 days before showing symptoms 4
5 Prevention NOT ROCKET SCIENCE Limit potential for exposure of horses to fruit bats or their excretions Keep feed, water troughs and horses away from trees where bats feed or roost Cover feed and water troughs Stable horses during high risk times 5
6 Prevention - We did consider. Would not be well-received by horse owners 6
7 How do we test for Hendra? BSL-4: We can t grow the virus PCR Front-line test for Hendra (current infection status) TaqMan (real-time PCR) Detects genetic material of virus (M gene) Blood plus AT LEAST one swab (nasal, oral, rectal, urine) Not all sites positive simultaneously Indirect ELISA Antibody detection (exposure history) Clotted blood Confirmation by VNT (AAHL) PCR plus serology for Hendra exclusion 7
8 Where do we test for Hendra? QLD testing at BSL Coopers Plains NSW at EMAI Camden Confirmatory testing of positive samples: PCR repeated (late nights!) sent to QHSS Coopers Plains for PCR AAHL Geelong for PCR and Virus Isolation 8
9 Hendra PCR Template extraction spin columns Move from manual to robotic template extraction QIAGEN EZ1 Advanced XL Rapid Minimal contact with potentially infectious material Low throughput (14 per run) KingFisher 96 Rapid High throughput (96 per run) Magnetic bead technology DNA and RNA 9
10 Issues (laboratory perspective) PCR inhibition Especially blood samples Test extracts neat and diluted Insufficient range of samples (only blood or one swab) Health testing!!! Staffing 2-3 Hendra PCR runs per day during 2011 response Difficulty maintaining normal service Trained extra staff to assist Unrealistic expectations of submitters and others Media Hysteria 10
11 Media 11
12 Historical perspective Spectacular appearance 1994 Hendra QLD stable 13 horses died Horse trainer died Stable worker infected but survived First virus isolation Second appearance October 1995 Human fatality Mackay QLD Necropsied two horses August 1994 Mild undiagnosed infection 1994 fatal encephalitis 14 months later 1995 Retrospectively identified as first spillover Another 12 spillovers

20 Changing patterns Frequency of spillovers : 14 spillovers 2011: 19 spillovers 2012: 6 spillovers to July 31 st Geographical distribution : Mostly Northern and South East QLD 2011: Mostly South East QLD/Northern NSW 2012: 6 to July 31 st : all Northern and Central QLD Temporal distribution: concentrated May/June - August/September Late Spring - early Autumn 20
21 Why? No definitive answer Do know: Hendra presence and excretion in flying fox colonies is sporadic Pregnancy, lactation, nutritional stress risk factors for infection of flying foxes Environmental factors affect prevalence Unusual wet season 2011 and food supply? Pteropus scapulatus nectivorous, key role in Hendra dissemination among colonies and species Spillovers clustered June - October Excretion by flying foxes has been observed throughout year Factors other than prevalence in colonies 21
