Abstract excerpt
Spanning almost six decades (1966-2024), 23 whole-genome sequences of Chandipura virus (CHPV), a neurotropic rhabdovirus associated with acute encephalitis primarily in India, have been analyzed. The virus is believed to be transmitted mainly by Sergentomyia and Phlebotomus sandflies. An epidemiological geographical map was developed showing global CHPV detection in sandflies, district-level human encephalitis...
