Nipah virus, Bats, Outbreak, Diagnosis, TreatmentAbstract
Nipah viral disease is a zoonotic infection caused by Nipah virus (NiV), a paramyxovirus belonging to the genus Henipavirus of the family Paramyxoviridae. First emerged in Malaysia in 1998 and has sinces caused outbreaks in other parts of south and south east Asia. It is an emerging bat-borne pathogen. It causes severe neurological and respiratory disease which is highly lethal. Nipah virus is associated with ingestion of contaminated date palm sap and human-to-human transmission. Bats are the main reservoir for this virus, which can cause disease in humans and animals. Rapid diagnosis and implementation of infection control measures are essential to contain outbreaks. Different types of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays along with molecular methods based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) have been developed for diagnostic purposes. A number of serological and molecular diagnostic techniques have been developed for diagnosis and management arise when a new area is affected. However, no effective treatment or prophylaxis is readily available, though several approaches show promise.
