    Description: A paramyxovirus virus termed Nipah virus has been identified as the etiologic agent of an outbreak of severe encephalitis in people with close contact exposure to pigs in Malaysia and Singapore. The outbreak was first noted in late September 1998 and by mid-June 1999, more than 265 encephalitis cases, including 105 deaths, had been reported in Malaysia, and 11 cases of encephalitis or respiratory illness with one death had been reported in Singapore. Electron microscopic, serologic, and genetic studies indicate that this virus belongs to the family Paramyxoviridae and is most closely related to the recently discovered Hendra virus. We suggest that these two viruses are representative of a new genus within the family Paramyxoviridae. Like Hendra virus, Nipah virus is unusual among the paramyxoviruses in its ability to infect and cause potentially fatal disease in a number of host species, including humans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chua, K B -- Bellini, W J -- Rota, P A -- Harcourt, B H -- Tamin, A -- Lam, S K -- Ksiazek, T G -- Rollin, P E -- Zaki, S R -- Shieh, W -- Goldsmith, C S -- Gubler, D J -- Roehrig, J T -- Eaton, B -- Gould, A R -- Olson, J -- Field, H -- Daniels, P -- Ling, A E -- Peters, C J -- Anderson, L J -- Mahy, B W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 May 26;288(5470):1432-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medical Microbiology, University of Malaya Medical Center, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10827955" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In March 2003, a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV) was discovered in association with cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). The sequence of the complete genome of SARS-CoV was determined, and the initial characterization of the viral genome is presented in this report. The genome of SARS-CoV is 29,727 nucleotides in length and has 11 open reading frames, and its genome organization is similar to that of other coronaviruses. Phylogenetic analyses and sequence comparisons showed that SARS-CoV is not closely related to any of the previously characterized coronaviruses.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rota, Paul A -- Oberste, M Steven -- Monroe, Stephan S -- Nix, W Allan -- Campagnoli, Ray -- Icenogle, Joseph P -- Penaranda, Silvia -- Bankamp, Bettina -- Maher, Kaija -- Chen, Min-Hsin -- Tong, Suxiong -- Tamin, Azaibi -- Lowe, Luis -- Frace, Michael -- DeRisi, Joseph L -- Chen, Qi -- Wang, David -- Erdman, Dean D -- Peret, Teresa C T -- Burns, Cara -- Ksiazek, Thomas G -- Rollin, Pierre E -- Sanchez, Anthony -- Liffick, Stephanie -- Holloway, Brian -- Limor, Josef -- McCaustland, Karen -- Olsen-Rasmussen, Melissa -- Fouchier, Ron -- Gunther, Stephan -- Osterhaus, Albert D M E -- Drosten, Christian -- Pallansch, Mark A -- Anderson, Larry J -- Bellini, William J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 May 30;300(5624):1394-9.

    Description: Several human and animal Ebola outbreaks have occurred over the past 4 years in Gabon and the Republic of Congo. The human outbreaks consisted of multiple simultaneous epidemics caused by different viral strains, and each epidemic resulted from the handling of a distinct gorilla, chimpanzee, or duiker carcass. These animal populations declined markedly during human Ebola outbreaks, apparently as a result of Ebola infection. Recovered carcasses were infected by a variety of Ebola strains, suggesting that Ebola outbreaks in great apes result from multiple virus introductions from the natural host. Surveillance of animal mortality may help to predict and prevent human Ebola outbreaks.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Leroy, Eric M -- Rouquet, Pierre -- Formenty, Pierre -- Souquiere, Sandrine -- Kilbourne, Annelisa -- Froment, Jean-Marc -- Bermejo, Magdalena -- Smit, Sheilag -- Karesh, William -- Swanepoel, Robert -- Zaki, Sherif R -- Rollin, Pierre E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jan 16;303(5656):387-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut de Recherche pour le Developpement, UR034, Centre International de Recherches Medicales de Franceville, BP 769 Franceville, Gabon.

    Description: A mysterious respiratory illness with high mortality was recently reported in the southwestern United States. Serologic studies implicated the hantaviruses, rodent-borne RNA viruses usually associated elsewhere in the world with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. A genetic detection assay amplified hantavirus-specific DNA fragments from RNA extracted from the tissues of patients and deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) caught at or near patient residences. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed the associated virus to be a new hantavirus and provided a direct genetic link between infection in patients and rodents.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nichol, S T -- Spiropoulou, C F -- Morzunov, S -- Rollin, P E -- Ksiazek, T G -- Feldmann, H -- Sanchez, A -- Childs, J -- Zaki, S -- Peters, C J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 5;262(5135):914-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Viral and Rickettsial Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA 30333.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8235615" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Since the discovery of the Marburg and Ebola species of filovirus, seemingly random, sporadic fatal outbreaks of disease in humans and nonhuman primates have given impetus to identification of host tropisms and potential reservoirs. Domestic swine in the Philippines, experiencing unusually severe outbreaks of porcine reproductive and respiratory disease syndrome, have now been discovered to host Reston ebolavirus (REBOV). Although REBOV is the only member of Filoviridae that has not been associated with disease in humans, its emergence in the human food chain is of concern. REBOV isolates were found to be more divergent from each other than from the original virus isolated in 1989, indicating polyphyletic origins and that REBOV has been circulating since, and possibly before, the initial discovery of REBOV in monkeys.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Barrette, Roger W -- Metwally, Samia A -- Rowland, Jessica M -- Xu, Lizhe -- Zaki, Sherif R -- Nichol, Stuart T -- Rollin, Pierre E -- Towner, Jonathan S -- Shieh, Wun-Ju -- Batten, Brigid -- Sealy, Tara K -- Carrillo, Consuelo -- Moran, Karen E -- Bracht, Alexa J -- Mayr, Gregory A -- Sirios-Cruz, Magdalena -- Catbagan, Davinio P -- Lautner, Elizabeth A -- Ksiazek, Thomas G -- White, William R -- McIntosh, Michael T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Jul 10;325(5937):204-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1172705.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Foreign Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory, National Veterinary Services Laboratories, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services, United States Department of Agriculture, Plum Island Animal Disease Center, New York, NY 11944, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19590002" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
