Viral hemorrhagic fevers have captured the imagination of the public and made their way into popular books and movies by virtue of their extreme virulence and mysterious origins. Since 2001, concerns have grown about the potential use of many hemorrhagic fever viruses as biological weapons.

Viral hemorrhagic fever viruses
Disease-a-Month, 2013Dengue, a viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) virus, is the most common mosquito-borne illness (Figs. 1 and 2), and one of the fastest spreading infections worldwide. It is a significant global health concern given there are estimated 3 billion people who live in areas where dengue virus can be transmitted.

Viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) is a severe, often fatal disease in humans and nonhuman primates (e.g., monkeys and chimpanzees). The two main causes of VHF are Marburg and Ebola virus infection. Lassa fever and Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever occur less commonly. Marburg and Ebola viruses are RNA filoviruses.

This chapter discusses viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHF), a group of acute systemic illnesses that classically involve fever, a constellation of initially nonspecific signs and symptoms, and a propensity for bleeding and shock. VHFs are caused by small, single-stranded, lipid-enveloped RNA viruses from four families: Arenaviridae, Bunyaviridae ...

Viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) agents are dominantly from four major RNA virus families: the Arenaviridae, Bunyaviridae, Filoviridae, and Flaviviridae. General and hemorrhagic signs and symptoms of these viral infections are well known, but their neurological complications and clinical variants with distinct neurologic syndromes are not so famous ...

INTRODUCTION Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) refer to a group of illnesses caused by several families of viruses, including: Filoviridae (Ebola and Marburg viruses) Arenaviridae (Lassa fever and New World hemorrhagic fever) Bunyaviridae (Rift Valley fever, Crimean-Congo fever, and agents of “hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome” [HFRS ...

Viral haemorrhagic fevers, such as Lassa fever and yellow fever, cause tens of thousands of deaths annually outside the Netherlands. The viruses are mostly transmitted by mosquitoes, ticks or via excreta of rodents. Important to travellers are yellow fever, dengue and Lassa and Ebola fever. For yellow fever there is an efficacious vaccine.

Pathogenesis of viral hemorrhagic fever
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2005Single-stranded RNA viruses from four different families cause a syndrome of fever and malaise, 'capillary leak' with loss of plasma volume, and coagulation defects which can lead to bleeding. Although direct cytopathic effects can contribute to disease severity, most features of illness are caused by innate immune responses, as the systemic spread of ...

Viral Hemorrhagic Fever: Bunyaviridae
Current Treatment Options in Infectious Diseases, 2015Viruses of the family Bunyaviridae cause a variety of human diseases. Some members of this family are known to cause hemorrhagic fever syndrome in humans. Included in this group are Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever and Hantaan virus-induced hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome.
