research suggests.

Scientists in China have linked the covert mortality nodavirus (CMNV) to
cases of a condition known as persistent ocular hypertension viral anterior
uveitis, or POH-VAU. They found evidence of the virus in the eye tissues of
people with POH-VAU, many of whom reported recent exposure to raw seafood or
marine animals; they also found that CMNV could cause similar eye symptoms in
infected mice. If confirmed, CMNV would appear to be the first virus native
to aquatic life tied to an eye disease in people—one that could become a
growing health concern, the researchers warn.



“This study reveals that an aquatic animal virus is associated with an
emerging human disease,” they wrote in the paper, published late last month
in the journal Nature Microbiology.

「這項研究表明，一種水生動物病毒與一種新出現的人類疾病有關，」他們在上個月底發
表在《自然微生物學》雜誌上的論文中寫道。

Marine blindness

POH-VAU is an emerging eye disease characterized by high intraocular pressure
and inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye. Chronic or
recurrent cases of viral anterior uveitis (anterior refers to the frontmost
part of the uvea) are typically caused by certain herpesviruses, including
the herpes simplex virus (the cause of herpes). But the study researchers
have been documenting a rise of POH-VAU cases in China not linked to any of
these common culprits.

Earlier research suggested that some people with POH-VAU had viral particles
in their eyes that resembled CMNV, a recently discovered virus that has
become a serious threat to shrimp farming operations in Asia and Australia.
So the researchers wanted to study whether CMNV might indeed be causing
POH-VAU.

POH-VAU病例數量上升，而這些病例與上述任何常見病原體均無關聯。



They looked at 70 patients diagnosed with POH-VAU between January 2022 and
April 2025; they also compared these patients to healthy people. As before,
the researchers found viral particles similar in shape and size to CMNV in
the eye tissue removed from patients as part of a surgical treatment (and
none in the control group). They also found that all the patients tested
positive for antibodies to CMNV, while genetic testing showed that the virus
isolated from people bore a 98.96% match to CMNV samples found in aquatic
animals. Lastly, when they infected mice with CMNV, the animals developed
similar symptoms to those seen in humans with POH-VAU.



How worried should we be?

Obviously, more research will be needed to confirm the role of CMNV in
causing POH-VAU and answer other related questions, such as its actual
likelihood to cause human illness. But there is certainly reason to be
worried about the implications of this discovery if it is further validated.

我們該有多擔心？



For starters, it would highlight that emerging zoonotic diseases—those that
can jump from animals to humans—don’t just originate on land, but in the
ocean as well. Secondly, while most cases (around 71%) were linked to direct
contact with raw shrimp or other seafood, the researchers did identify some
cases without such a clear exposure. That raises the possibility that CMNV
and POH-VAU could spread between humans, though this hasn’t been confirmed.

Even if this disease is only spread through seafood, the risk could be
growing. The researchers also looked at data showing that CMNV has been
detected in 49 aquatic species so far. These species live in waters
throughout the world, including the Americas and Europe.
