Human bocavirus 1 is a common cause of acute respiratory tract infection, especially in young children, wheezing being a common symptom. Other parvoviruses associated with different diseases in humans include human parvovirus 4 and human bufavirus, though the manner by which these viruses cause disease is unclear. [6]
For most people who contract parvovirus B19, treatment is not needed and symptoms will go away on their own, according to the CDC. People can use over-the-counter treatments to relieve symptoms ...
Human parvovirus B19, generally referred to as B19 virus (B19V), parvovirus B19 [1] or sometimes erythrovirus B19, [2] is a known human virus in the family Parvoviridae, genus Erythroparvovirus; it measures only 23–26 nm in diameter. [3] Human parvovirus b19 is a below-species classification of Erythroparvovirus primate1. [4]
A second virus in this genus that infects humans —cutavirus— was initially isolated from the feces of children with diarrhea. [13] A third potential human protoparvovirus —tusavirus 1— has been reported in the feces of a single human, but whether or not it is able to infect humans or was simply ingested remains to be clarified.

The prevalence of parvovirus B19 in pooled plasma samples from an unspecified “large commercial laboratory” increased from 1.5% in December to 19.9% in June, the CDC said.
Human bocavirus (HBoV) is the name given to all viruses in the genus Bocaparvovirus of virus family Parvoviridae [2] that are known to infect humans. HBoV1 and HBoV3 (and gorilla bocaparvovirus) are members of species Primate bocaparvovirus 1 whereas viruses HBoV2 and HBoV4 belong to species Primate bocaparvovirus 2 .
"It's a canine parvovirus. So it's not about humans, but it is about humans, because this virus jumps species," Hafenstein said, adding that this makes understanding the virus's mechanisms — and ...
Mink enteritis virus (MEV) is a strain of Carnivore protoparvovirus 1 [1] that infects mink and causes enteritis.Like all parvoviruses, it is a small (18–26 nm), spherical virus, and has a single-stranded DNA genome.
