Oropouche seropositivity much higher than thought, up 30% in some populations. Reasons for increased recent spread multifactorial, climate events important predictors. Huge collaborative project led by Jan Felix Drexler.

The spatiotemporal ecology of Oropouche virus across Latin America: a multidisciplinary, laboratory-based, modelling study
Our data suggest that climatic factors are major drivers of OROV spread and were potentially
exacerbated during 2024 by extreme weather events. OROV glycoprotein reassortants,
but not individual OROV ...

Here we boiled for 1 minute. Typical pasteurization protocols use lower temps, (60C for 30 minutes or 72C for 15 seconds which we also showed inactivated RVFV), so I imagine shorter boiling would work. We just didn't do shorter times to conclusively show that.
