Abstract

We isolated a new orthonairovirus from Dermacentor silvarum ticks near the China–North Korea border. Phylogenetic analysis showed 71.9%–73.0% nucleic acid identity to the recently discovered Songling orthonairovirus, which causes febrile illness in humans. We recommend enhanced surveillance for infection by this new virus among humans and livestock.
