The Immunobiology of Nipah Virus
Nipah virus (NiV) is a highly lethal zoonotic paramyxovirus that emerged in Malaysia in 1998. It is a human pathogen capable of causing severe respiratory infection and encephalitis. The natural reservoir of NiV, Pteropus fruit bats, remains a continuous virus source for future outbreaks, although infection in the bats is largely asymptomatic.

ABSTRACT Nipah virus, a paramyxovirus related to Hendra virus, first emerged in Malaysia in 1998. Clinical presentation ranges from asymptomatic infection to fatal encephalitis. Malaysia has had no more cases since 1999, but outbreaks continue to occur in Bangladesh and India.

Evaluation and comparison of three virucidal agents on inactivation of Nipah virus
Modern human activity is profoundly changing our relationship with microorganisms with the startling rise in the rate of emerging infectious diseases. Nipah virus together with Ebola virus and SARS-CoV-2 are prominent examples.

Nipah virus emerged in 1999 in Peninsula Malaysia, where it caused a severe respiratory disease in pigs, some of which also displayed encephalitic symptoms. Humans became infected following contact with infected pigs and suffered a severe encephalitic disease. There were a total of 276 human infections in Malaysia and Singapore, with 106 deaths, a case

Nipah Virus Detection at Bat Roosts after Spillover Events, Bangladesh, 2012–2019
Knowledge of the dynamics and genetic diversity of Nipah virus circulating in bats and at the human-animal interface is limited by current sampling efforts, which produce few detections of viral RNA.

Recurrent Zoonotic Transmission of Nipah Virus into Humans, Bangladesh, 2001–2007
Human Nipah outbreaks recur in a specific region and time of year in Bangladesh. Fruit bats are the reservoir host for Nipah virus. We identified 23 introductions of Nipah virus into human populations in central and northwestern Bangladesh from 2001 ...

Quantitative estimation of Nipah virus replication kinetics
Background Nipah virus is a zoonotic virus isolated from an outbreak in Malaysia in 1998. The virus causes infections in humans, pigs, and several other domestic animals. It has also been isolated from fruit bats.

Cluster of Nipah virus infection, Kushtia District, Bangladesh, 2007. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: In March 2007, we investigated a cluster of Nipah encephalitis to identify risk factors for Nipah infection in Bangladesh. METHODS: We defined confirmed Nipah cases by the presence of IgM and IgG antibodies against Nipah virus in serum.
