Log values are viral RNA copy numbers expressed as base 10 logarithmic values. All samples were from day-old runted commercial poultry poults
#Upper-case letters denote different poultry establishments (H, hatchery; SF, smallholder farm), and lower-case letters indicate different farms/flocks. Values below 2 are considered negative, as they are below the reproducible lower detection limit of the CAstV real-time RT-qPCR test
