    Abstract Immunofluorescence (IF) is an important technique used in the diagnosis of many infectious diseases. In virology, it has proven to be particularly suited to detecting antibody directed against newly emerging viruses able to be cultivated in cell culture. It permits visualization of antibody and allows for antibody class to be determined which is critical to understanding the timing of infection. The procedure used to determine IgG, IgA, and IgM antibody directed against SARS-CoV-2 in humans is described in this chapter. These methods were developed for routine diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Australia at the start of the global pandemic in 2020.

    Abstract Introduction: Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that causes encephalitis and other morbidity in Southeast Asia. Since February 2022, geographically dispersed JEV human, animal and vector detections occurred on the Australian mainland for the first time. This study will determine the prevalence of JEV-specific antibodies in human blood with a focus on populations at high risk of JEV exposure and determine risk factors associated with JEV seropositivity by location, age, occupation and other factors.
    Method: Samples are collected using two approaches: from routine blood donors (4153 samples), and active collections targeting high-risk populations (convenience sampling). Consent-based sampling for the latter includes a participant questionnaire on demographic, vaccination and exposure data. Samples are tested for JEV-specific total antibody using a defined epitope-blocking ELISA, and total antibody to Australian endemic flaviviruses Murray Valley encephalitis and Kunjin viruses.
    Analysis: Two analytic approaches will occur: descriptive estimates of seroprevalence and multivariable logistic regression using Bayesian hierarchical models. Descriptive analyses will include unadjusted analysis of raw data with exclusions for JEV-endemic country of birth, travel to JEV-endemic countries, prior JEV-vaccination, and sex-standardised and age-standardised analyses. Multivariable logistic regression will determine which risk factors are associated with JEV seropositivity likely due to recent transmission within Australia and the relative contribution of each factor when accounting for effects within the model.
    Ethics: National Mutual Acceptance ethical approval was obtained from the Sydney Children's Hospitals Network Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC). Local approvals were sought in each jurisdiction. Ethical approval was also obtained from the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood HREC.
    Dissemination: Findings will be communicated to participants and their communities, and human and animal health stakeholders and policy-makers iteratively and after final analyses. Understanding human infection rates will inform procurement and targeted allocation of limited JEV vaccine, and public health strategies and communication campaigns, to at-risk populations.

    Abstract In response to the emergence of the monkeypox virus (MPXV) in Australia in May 2022, we developed and evaluated indirect immunofluorescence assays (IFA) for MPXV and Vaccinia virus (VACV) IgG and IgM antibodies using serum samples from patients with nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT)-confirmed mpox and uninfected unvaccinated controls. Additionally, 47 healthcare workers receiving two doses of the third-generation smallpox vaccine Modified Vaccinia Ankara-Bavarian Nordic (MVA-BN) undertook serial serum collection to describe the serological response to vaccination. MPXV antibodies were detected in 16/18 individuals with NAAT-confirmed mpox (sensitivity 0.89, specificity 1.00), and VACV antibodies were detected in 28/29 individuals who received two doses of MVA-BN vaccine (sensitivity 0.97, specificity 1.00). Detectable antibody in subjects historically vaccinated with early-generation vaccines against smallpox was found in 7/7 subjects, at a median of 48 years following vaccination. MPXV NAAT-positive patients with serum samples collected within the first 14 days after rash onset had detectable IgG and IgM in 9/12 and 5/12 of patients, respectively, with maintenance of IgG and disappearance of IgM titers after 60 days. While specificity was high when testing unvaccinated and uninfected subjects, significant cross-reactivity between MPXV and VACV antibodies was observed.

    Abstract In the context of an emerging Japanese encephalitis outbreak within Australia, we describe a novel locally acquired case in New South Wales. A man in his 70s had rapidly progressive, fatal meningoencephalitis, diagnosed as caused by Japanese encephalitis virus by RNA-based metagenomic next-generation sequencing performed on postmortem brain tissue.

    Abstract Objective: To describe the effectiveness of the public health response to COVID-19 in our local region by documenting detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection by nucleic acid testing (NAT) positivity and seroprevalence.
    Methods: In this prospective study (ACTRN12620000487910), symptomatic adult international travellers returning to regional Australia in March 2020 underwent SARS-CoV-2 NAT and SARS-CoV-2-specific serology.
    Results: Ninety-nine eligible participants were included. Nine participants had laboratory confirmed SARS-CoV-2, all returning between 16-20 March 2020. Eight (89%) had a positive NAT and seven (78%) had a positive serology test. The majority returned from New Zealand. Participants most frequently presented with cough (100%), headache (66.7%) and sore throat (44.4%). No community cases were detected from 1 March to 30 June 2020.
    Conclusions: The study cohort of international travellers returning to regional Australia in March 2020 returned eight positive SARS-CoV-2 NAT results over a five-day window. Serology identified one additional case and was negative in two cases who were PCR positive. Longitudinal data confirmed an absence of local community transmission to 30 June 2020.
    Implications for public health: A combination of local, national and environmental factors were necessary to prevent the establishment of community transmission in our local region.
