Self-contained chapters deal with each of the 4 taxonomic viral families (Flaviviridae, Arenaviridae, Bunyaviridae, and Filoviridae), which make up the category of viral hemorrhagic fever agents. This viral strategy is completely opposite to that of the Arenaviridae, where the reservoirs are much less diverse (usually a single species), but the hosts occur at high density and viral excretion is long-lasting (19). The virus family Arenaviridae comprises two serocomplexes (1). |
