Study of the clinical manifestations and risk factors in people affected during the first Kyasanur Forest Disease outbreak in Goa, India: A mixed method study
CONCLUSION: The 'One Health' approach should be implemented to control KFD. Tick bite prevention measures coupled with vaccination of high-risk groups and intensive health education should be carried out, especially before the transmission season. There is a need to have high clinical suspicion for KFD in the region bearing in mind the non-hemorrhagic manifestation in this outbreak.PMID:38648403 | DOI:10.4103/0972-9062.383650 (Source: Journal of Vector Borne Diseases)

Kamara Jonathan S. Towner Aiah Lebbie Sosuga virus (SOSV), a rare human pathogenic paramyxovirus, was first discovered in 2012 when a person became ill after working in South Sudan and Uganda. During an ecological investigation, several species of bats were sampled and tested for SOSV RNA and only one species, the Egyptian rousette bat (ERBs; Rousettus aegyptiacus), tested positive. Since that time, multipl...

Infection and transmission of henipavirus in animals
Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis. 2024 Apr 17;109:102183. doi: 10.1016/j.cimid.2024.102183. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHenipavirus (HNV) is well known for two zoonotic viruses in the genus, Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV), which pose serious threat to human and animal health. In August 2022, a third zoonotic virus in the genus Henipavirus, Langya virus (LayV), was discovered in China. The emergence of HeV, NiV, and LayV highlights the persistent threat of HNV to human and animal health. In addition to the above three HNVs, new species within this genus are still being discovered. Although they have not yet cau...
