Abstract

ABSTRACT Three rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus type 2 (RHDV2) coding-complete genome sequences were obtained from domestic and wild rabbits in Washington State in June and July 2023. These three RHDV2 sequences are <82% identical to previous RHDV2 sequences in North America and likely indicate a discrete incursion.
