Prompted by Valhall's recent Global Security Report for 04/29/04 item on Bangladesh's recent virus outbreak with an alarming mortality rate, as high as 74% (17 deaths out of 23 confirmed infections), I have done a bit of research on the situation.

WHO- Nipah Virus Overview

Nipah virus is a newly recognized zoonotic virus. The virus was 'discovered' in 1999. It has caused disease in animals and in humans, through contact with infectious animals. The virus is named after the location where it was first detected in Malaysia. Nipah is closely related to another newly recognized zoonotic virus (1994), called Hendra virus, named after the town where it first appeared in Australia. Both Nipah and Hendra are members of the virus family Paramyxoviridae. Although members of this group of viruses have only caused a few focal outbreaks, the biologic property of these viruses to infect a wide range of hosts and to produce a disease causing significant mortality in humans has made this emerging viral infection a public heath concern.

Scientists suspect that certain species of fruit bats most the Nipah virus, although they do not become ill from it. The vector responsible for transmission from bats to humans is currently unknown. The incubation period of the disease is between 4 and 18 days in humans with generally mild onset of “flu-like” symptoms. The symptoms may progress to inflammation of the brain (encephalitis), disorientation, convulsions, coma and death. The risk of transmission of Nipah virus from sick animals to humans is thought to be low, and transmission from person-to-person has not yet been documented, even in the context of a large outbreak. Epidemiologic characteristics of the outbreak in Bangladesh suggested the possibility of person-to-person transmission. Investigators from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization, and other international healthcare organizations have again been dispatched to collect data on the outbreaks.

Treatment
No drug therapies have yet been proven to be effective in treating Nipah infection. Treatment relies on providing intensive supportive care. There is some evidence that early treatment with the antiviral drug, Ribavirin, can reduce both the duration of feverish illness and the severity of disease. However, the efficacy of this treatment in curing disease or improving survival is still uncertain.
