viral zoonosis
spread
bites - rabies, herpesB mosq.
urine/feces - hanta, sars
repiratory - influenza
other? (ebola)
viral zoonosis
why so bad?
viruses did not evolve with humans

more pathogenic because humans arent natural host

viral reservoir maintained in animals - stable animal host
viral zoonosis
viruses that cause
HEMORRHAGIC FEVER
flavivirus - Yellow fever, dengue

bunyaviridae - hanta

arenaviridae - lassa fever

filoviridae - ebola
viral zoonosis
HEMORRHAGIC fever
acute fever with myalgia

capillary leak syndrome

host immune response from cytokine storm

all hemorrhagic fever viruses have zoonotic life cycles
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
-ssRNA
helical

7 genes, one strand (7 diff mRNAs)

enveloped

ebola/marburg

severe hemorrhagic fever 50-90% fatal
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
Marburg
green monkey to humans

not monkey virus either bc high mortality
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
ebola
4 subtypes
Zaire, sudan, cote d'ivore, reston

no seasonal prediction

easily quarantined
70-90% mortality
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
transmission
contact with body fluid, high viral load
--mostly blood bc hemorrhagic fever patients sweat and vomit blood

ebola probably bats
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
pathogenesis
3-5 days
abrupt fever

death caused by shock from
ORGAN FAILURE
CYTOKINE STORM/toxemia
macrophage infx-->spread to organs-->causes breakdown of endothelial cells (cells that line veins and arteries)
viral zoonosis
filoviridae
treatment & control
treatment = supportive care
fluid replacement

control = quarantine
change burial practices
dx samples ltd to lvl 4 labs
viral zoonosis
rhabdovirus
Rabies
enveloped
RNA
5 mRNAs

spread by bites
viral zoonosis
rhabdovirus
infection spread in host
bite saliva-->muscle-->replication in monocytes (WBC)-->viremia-->infection of peripheral neurons -->CNS -->secondary viremia -->replication in salivary gland
viral zoonosis
rhabdovirus
pathogenesis
most lethal virus to humans
100% fatal if not treated before symptoms set in

site of disease important--did it get into muscle?

long incubation (2-3mo)

neurologic disease in 2 flavors: furious and paralytic

coma and death 2-3 weeks after symptoms
viral zoonosis
rhabdovirus
diagnosis
patient history - questions about animal

immunofluorescent stain of skin biopsy
RT pcr with spinal fluid or saliva
viral zoonosis
rhabdovirus
prevention
vaccine
inactivated

vaccinate pets
viral zoonosis
bunyaviridae
segmented
ssRNA
3 RNAs (sm, med, lg) encapsidated
enveloped, but no matrix

entry through cell receptor mediated endocytosis, fuses with internal membrane
viral zoonosis
bunyaviridae
hanta
many hanta viruses

cause 2 diseases:
hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (hataan, seoul)

hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (sin nombre, NY virus)

specific rodent host
xmission through rodent excretion

no human human spread
viral zoonosis
bunyaviridae
sin nombre
causes human cardiopulmonary syndrome
35% mortality
no human human spread

deer mouse host (excretions)
viral zoonosis
bunyaviridae
sin nombre
pathogenesis
spreads through died mouse urine

fever-->myalgia-->abdominal pain

viral antigens in organs (lungs/heart) - causes capillary leakage

patient becomes hypoxic and has heart failure/shock
viral zoonosis
bunyaviridae
sin nombre
diagnosis
ELISA or W blot for serum antibodies

treatment = supportive
prevention = prevent mouse infest.
