At Limoges, the sexagenarian had fallen to encephalitis, a brain disease of unexplained roots. The genetic study of post-mortem samples has contributed to a collaboration between the Parisian Necker Hospital and the Institut Pasteur to discover undocumented encephalitis causes.

These tests revealed that he had acquired a bat-hosted lyssavirus, the European Bat Lyssavirus type 1 (EBLV-1). It has been 35 years since the planet has witnessed a death of this kind. According to Laurent Dacheux, this situation is also the first case in mainland France.
