Viruses
• “A piece of bad news wrapped up in a protein"
• Peter Medawar (1960 Nobel Prize for work on immunity and organ transplantation)

Viruses
• Annoyingly small – Hard to see/diagnose/confirm
• Obnoxiously diverse – No unifying genetic features
• Irritatingly clever – Evolve around vaccines and antivirals
• Maddeningly emergent – Ebola, SARS, West Nile, Zika, HIV, etc.

Oyster herpes • OsHV-1 mVar
– Malacoherpesviridae; Ostreavirus
• Massive mortality in Crassostrea gigas since 1998

• No vaccines or treatments • Epidemiologically informed management is the
current best strategy.

The Clinch River, TN • Massive die-off in Fall, 2017 • Multiple species, but not all equally affected • Some sites severely affected, others less so • Some animals at affected sites moribund while
others at the same sites healthy (apparently).

New viruses: cool, but so what?

Case-Control Study
Plan: analyze data in terms of a case-control study design, with controls being apparently healthy mussels and cases being moribund mussels.

What we have from all this
![Page 19: Viruses of Freshwater Mussels - FMCS-Freshwater Mollusk ... · • “Using a new method for quantitative enumeration, we have found up to 2.5 x 108 virus particles per millilitre](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070819/5f1b4710a68b6b5882607935/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hypothesis
![Page 20: Viruses of Freshwater Mussels - FMCS-Freshwater Mollusk ... · • “Using a new method for quantitative enumeration, we have found up to 2.5 x 108 virus particles per millilitre](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070819/5f1b4710a68b6b5882607935/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Caveats
• Small sample size • Type 1 error • Direction of causality
– Virus causes disease. – Disease causes virus. – Something else causes both.
• All sorts of bias (probably)

The key: incisive comparisons
![Page 22: Viruses of Freshwater Mussels - FMCS-Freshwater Mollusk ... · • “Using a new method for quantitative enumeration, we have found up to 2.5 x 108 virus particles per millilitre](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070819/5f1b4710a68b6b5882607935/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Epidemiology and Risk Assessment
• Count cases or health events, and describes them in terms of time, place, and person (or mollusk)
• Divide the number of cases by an appropriate denominator to calculate rates; and
• Compare these rates over time or for different groups of people (or mollusks).
![Page 23: Viruses of Freshwater Mussels - FMCS-Freshwater Mollusk ... · • “Using a new method for quantitative enumeration, we have found up to 2.5 x 108 virus particles per millilitre](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070819/5f1b4710a68b6b5882607935/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Some relevant comparisons • Sick vs. healthy • Affected species vs. Unaffected species • Affected locations vs. Unaffected locations • Before vs. After
![Page 24: Viruses of Freshwater Mussels - FMCS-Freshwater Mollusk ... · • “Using a new method for quantitative enumeration, we have found up to 2.5 x 108 virus particles per millilitre](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070819/5f1b4710a68b6b5882607935/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Some next steps
• Bacteriology (including microbiomes) • Parasitology • Toxicology • Metabolomics • Other -omics • Virus isolation • Specific diagnostics (e.g. qPCR) • Additional sampling (species and locations) • Experimental studies (infection/translocation) • Risk assessment (informed risk factor analysis and
ecological/epidemiological modeling).
