Equine Herpes Virus - Dr. Diego Gomez-Nieto

Luis dicusses his research study on the equine herpesvirus by answering the following questions:

00:00 Introduction
00:36 With several strains of equine herpesvirus making the news, when do horse owners need to be concerned about EHV and how do they protect their horses?
02:48 Are cases of EHV on the rise. Or are we just hearing more about them lately in the press?
04:16 I understand your study compared nasal microbiota from ten horses that were infected with EHV-1 to that ofa healthy control group. And these were all from a farm in Ontario that
was experiencing an outbreak. What were the findings?
05:36 I understand that's similar to some of the studies in human viral infections.
06:23 How will this study contribute to investigations on the role of bacterial - viral interactions in the health and diseases of adult horses?
07:12 I imagine there were some challenges with this study.
09:06 What are the potential practical applications of your research for the horse owner?
13:57 Is there anything you would like to emphasize or sum up?
