2024年3月8日 · Kyasanur Forest Disease (KFD) is a viral disease mostly found in southern India. Spread to people primarily occurs through tick bites or contact with infected animals. KFD can be fatal. There is a vaccine available for people at risk for KFD. Between 400 and 500 people get KFD every year.

Kyasanur forest disease (KFD) is a tick-borne viral haemorrhagic fever endemic to southwestern India. [1] The disease is caused by a virus belonging to the family Flaviviridae. KFDV is transmitted to humans through the bite of infected hard ticks (Haemaphysalis spinigera), which act as a reservoir of KFDV.

2018年5月9日 · In South Asia, Haemaphysalis spinigera tick transmits Kyasanur Forest Disease Virus (KFDV), a flavivirus that causes severe hemorrhagic fever with neurological manifestations such as mental disturbances, severe headache, tremors, and vision deficits in infected human beings with a fatality rate of 3–10%.

Kyasanur forest disease (KFD) or monkey fever is a unique public health problem along the belts of Western Ghats of India. The disease is caused by KFD virus (KFDV) which is an arbovirus, family Flaviviridae1. Humans are infected by the bite of tick and present with fever, sometimes haemorrhagic and/or neurological features2.

2024年7月29日 · What Is Kyasanur Forest Disease? Kyasanur forest disease (KFD) is named for the place it was first reported, a forest in Karnataka, India. This disease is caused by a virus that infects...

2024年12月1日 · Kyasanur forest disease (KFD) is a tick-borne viral haemorrhagic fever, first identified in 1957 in Shimoga district of Karnataka state, India. Work and Trapido described Kyasanur forest disease that caused high mortality in monkeys in March 1955 in this forest and also some humans in the neighbouring village. The virus was isolated from a sick ...

2024年1月1日 · The manuscript titled “Kyasanur Forest Disease: Clinical Manifestations and Molecular Dynamics in a Zoonotic Landscape” explores the complexities of Kyasanur Forest Disease (KFD), a tick-borne viral infection caused by the Kyasanur Forest disease virus (KFDV).

Two major tick-borne virus zoonotic diseases, Kyasanur forest disease (KFD) and Crimean–Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF), are notifiable in India and are associated with high mortality rates. KFD virus was first identified in 1957 in Karnataka state; the tick Haemaphysalis spinigera is the main vector.
