The Molecular Biology of West Nile Virus: A New Invader of the Western Hemisphere

4 Sept 2002

Abstract excerpt

West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that primarily infects birds but occasionally also infects humans and horses. In recent years, the frequency of WNV outbreaks in humans has increased, and these outbreaks have been associated with a higher incidence of severe disease. In 1999, the geographical distribution of WNV expanded to the Western hemisphere. WNV has a positive strand RNA genome of about...
