Genomic Diversity and Spatiotemporal Distributions of Lassa Virus Outbreaks in Nigeria

2019-10-28

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Abstract Background Lassa virus (LASV) is a single-negative strand RNA Arenavirus (genus Mammarenavirus), oriented in both negative and positive senses. Due to the increase in the fatality rate of deadly disease LASV caused (Lassa fever), widespread LASV in Nigeria has been a subject of interest. Following the upsurge of LASV endemicity in 2012, another marked incidence recorded in Nige...
