Virus Nyando

Nyando virus is a virus from the ecological group of arboviruses, which belongs to the Nyando antigenic group and is considered poorly understood. Although Nyando virus has not been shown to be pathogenic to humans, it can pose a risk to animals and people, especially in areas with high mosquito activity.

Arboviruses are a group of viruses that are transmitted through mosquito bites and cause various diseases in humans and animals, including Dengue fever, Chikungunya, Zika and others. The Nyando arbovirus group includes several closely related viruses such as Nyando virus, Kyasanur virus, and Chikungunya virus.

The Nyando virus is spherical in shape and contains single-stranded RNA. It belongs to the ecological group of arboviruses and is transmitted through mosquito bites. However, although Nyando virus has been discovered in some regions of Asia and Africa, its pathogenicity in humans remains unknown.

Although research into Nyando virus continues, its epidemiological significance remains unclear. However, if Nyando virus is discovered in a region where it was not previously known, this may indicate that it may be transmitted from person to person and that more research will be needed to assess its danger.

Nyando virus: should we be afraid?

Currently, 24 thousand cases of this strange infection are known around the world. However, some sources state that this figure is not accurate at the moment, and there is great disagreement in terms of the exact statistics of infected people. Other sources indicate that about 79 thousand people are currently infected.

The consequences of the emergence of a new virus can be unpredictable. Infected people are rumored to suffer from nausea, vomiting and loss of consciousness. Sometimes the Nyando virus can cause severe illness or death. According to statistics, children under four years of age suffered the most. Fortunately
