Hantavirus

The Hantavirus belongs to Bunyaviridae. The animal tank is a rodent, the man is a possible host.

The Hantavirus are responsible for several fevers hemorrhagic generally striking down.

Other Bunyaviridae are responsible for hemoragic fevers. In particular:

• the virus of the hemoragic fever of Crimea-Congo

• the virus of the fever of the Rift Valley (Africa of the East)

Other viruses cause hemoragic fevers:

• the Arenavirus (Fièvre of Wearied)

• the Filovirus (Virus Ebola and Virus Marburg)
• Some Flavivirus (certain viruses of the Dengue in South Asia East or of the Yellow fever)

The majority of these fevers are regarded as transmitted or transmissible to the man starting from healthy vectors in the animal world. Thus are explained (for the rarest pathologies) the sporadic appearances of these diseases often extremely serious.
