Corrigendum on: Fay PC, Wijesiriwardana N, Munyanduki H, Sanz-Bernardo B, Lewis I, Haga IR, Moffat K, van Vliet AHM, Hope J, Graham SP, Beard PM. The immune response to lumpy skin disease virus in cattle is influenced by inoculation route. Front Immunol. 2022 Nov 28;13:1051008. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.1051008. PMID: 36518761; PMCID: PMC9742517.Recent analysis of blood samples from the directly-inoculated "donor" cattle described in this publication has identified the presence of pestivirus genome in venous blood samples from cattle D2, D3, D4 and D5, suggesting possible contamination of the challenge inoculum. No pestivirus genome was detected in blood samples from donor D1. No pestivirus genome was detected in blood samples from any of the ten arthropod-inoculated recipient cattle. The influence from the presence of pestivirus on the immune responses directed against LSDV in the directly-inoculated cattle D2, D3, D4 and D5 is unclear. The conclusions of the paper, particularly the importance of using the most relevant model possible when studying disease under experimental conditions, remain unchanged. The potential of pestivirus contamination of LSDV stocks is highlighted to the research community.
