Chikungunya Outbreak In China: Experts say the painful infection, spread to people from mosquitoes, can get to many countries if it finds the right hosts.
Apart from Foshan City, at least 12 other cities in the southern Guangdong province are affected from chikungunya virus. A total count of 3,000 new cases was reported in the last week alone.
China has been gripped by the CHIKV Virus, and that has led the neighbouring countries to issue an alarm.
After 15 years of research, scientists in China have discovered two brand-new brain-inflaming viruses in bats, relatives of the deadly Nipah and Hendra strains. Found in kidney tissue near fruit orchards, these viruses could pose a future outbreak risk. While no human cases are reported yet, experts are urging global surveillance and caution.
Deadly Brain Virus Found In China: Concerns about another pandemic and virus outbreak loom as the Chinese researchers found 20 new viruses linked to bats.
Named HKU5-CoV-2, the virus was identified by scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which has been at the centre of the theory that Covid-19 leaked from a lab. Read on to know more about this newly detected virus.
Scientists have identified a new bat coronavirus, HKU5-CoV-2, with similarities to SARS-CoV-2. Read on to know more about the virus variant, and understand what CDC has to say about the current threat.
HKU5-CoV-2, belongs to the merbecovirus subgenus, which includes the Mers virus. This newly isolated strain can bind to the ACE2 receptor in human cells, the same pathway used by the Covid-19 virus.
HMPV Virus News Live Updates: India has reported a total of 7 cases of Human Metapneumovirus; taking cognizance of the situation, the government issued a fresh advisory to control the surge.
Are we heading towards another lockdown? COVID-19 like HMPV virus spreading rapidly in China. What happens if this virus enters India just like COVID did in 2019? Are we ready for the next pandemic?
Of the novel viruses, a new coronavirus dubbed CoV-HMU-1 was found to be a betacoronavirus -- a sub-genre of coronaviruses that includes Covid.
Covid seems to have gripped China further in its clasp as the country reports its first deaths in a single day. The US is also struggling to contain the surge, which is why the nation may impose new lockdowns.
