Abstract

Most viruses implicated in these diseases require vectors for transmission to humans, most are transmitted by arthropods or rodent-borne infections, and due to the zoonotic nature of these diseases, these diseases are generally confined to endemic areas where their hosts live. Symptoms of the hemorrhagic fever virus include fatigue, aches, cough, fever, shortness of breath, and eye redness. Given that viral genome detection is the best tool for diagnosis, however, blood sampling requires personal medical training and involves important risks for the patient as well as for personal healthcare. Sampling may therefore be by non-invasive methods (eg, saliva or urine), as well as multiplex PCR, lateral flow assays, and non-invasive sampling, including saliva and urine. It was found that there are many immune indicators related to the hemorrhagic fever virus, including protein C and D-dimer, which were found to increase when infected with hemorrhagic fever. As for inflammatory cytokines, they were found to play an important role in causing infection with the hemorrhagic fever virus, including interleukin 6, interferon gamma, as well as About tumor necrosis factor.
