    Abstract:
    Results of serological survey in small rodents with the antigen of haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) virus indicate the existence of a natural focus of this virus in Slovakia. Antibodies were found in the following free-living rodent species: Clethrionomys glareolus, Apodemus agrarius, Apodemus sylvaticus, Pitymys subterraneus, Microtus arvalis and Microtus economus. A total 10 out of 120 (8.2%) small rodents trapped in investigated localities of Western and Eastern Slovakia had antibodies to the HFRS virus antigen as detected by complement fixation (CF) and/or immunofluorescence (IF) tests.
