法国卫生和农业部门于10月22日确认该国首次检测到人类感染Shamonda病毒的病例1。患者为一名严重免疫缺陷个体，已于10月早期死亡1。
Shamonda病毒由咬蝠蠓传播，此前在非洲和亚洲循环流行数十年，但从未在人类中被检测到1。这一病例标志着该病毒首次在人类身上确诊感染1。病毒最早于20世纪60年代中期在尼日利亚被发现，随后于2026年春夏季在法国东部地区的动物中被报告出现1。
法国当局表示，目前未发现对公众健康的风险1。世界卫生组织和欧洲疾病预防控制中心已被告知此事件1。
French health authorities announced on October 22 that they have identified the first confirmed human infection with Shamonda virus, marking the first documented case of the pathogen in humans.1 The patient, described as a severely immunocompromised individual, died earlier in October.1
Shamonda virus is transmitted by biting midges (culicoides) and had previously circulated exclusively among animals in Africa and Asia for decades before this human case emerged.1 According to a joint statement from France's health and agriculture ministries, "Despite circulating in Africa and Asia for tens of years, Shamonda virus has never been detected in humans until now."1 The virus was first identified in Nigeria in the mid-1960s and was subsequently reported in animals across eastern France during spring and summer 2026.1
French health officials stated there is currently no identified risk to public health.1 The World Health Organization and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control have been notified of the incident.1
