Abstract:   (288 Views)
     West Nile virus (WNV) is a microorganism that causes the spread of deadly diseases and is a common disease between animals and humans. West Nile virus is a member of the Flavivirus family, commonly found in Africa, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and West Asia. This virus infects birds, humans, horses, dogs, cats, bats, ferrets, and domestic rabbits. Our goal in this article is to further investigate this disease in terms of epidemiology, etiology, symptoms, methods of diagnosis, and treatment and to provide ways to prevent this common zoonotic disease. The primary way of infection in humans is through the bites of infected mosquitoes, but there are no reports of direct transmission of the disease from pets to humans. So far, the vaccine for this disease has been produced only for horses, and there is no human vaccine yet. The virus that causes this disease causes two forms of the disease in humans: 1- Mild form: without symptoms or with minor symptoms with an incubation period of 3-8 days, after which fever, headache, cold, weakness, swollen lymph nodes, Fatigue and bruises, skin rashes, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea are observed. 2- Acute form: In this form, the nervous system is attacked, and the symptoms of encephalitis or meningitis are observed in patients. Due to the lack of a specific and effective medicine against the West Nile virus until today, disease prevention by informing doctors and public health officials for timely diagnosis and control of the virus and monitoring mosquitoes will be effective in reducing this disease. We have reviewed several articles about the West Nile virus through Google Scholar, Scopus, etc
