| description | Rift Valley fever is an arboviral disease that mainly affects both animals and humans, associated with
symptoms like strong chills, malaise, weakness, nausea, a severe headache, or a feeling of fullness around the
hepatic region. It is mainly caused by a family of Bunyaviridae and the genus Phlebovirus of Rift Valley Fever
(RVF). The virus spreads through mosquitoes and domestic animals in humans. The incubation period for RVF
usually lasts four to six days. The majority of cases of RVF were non-fatal and self-limiting, whereas
thrombosis, severe dengue, neurological problems, eyesight loss, or abortions in pregnant females have also
been reported to be associated with the fever. Since 2000, multiple outbreaks have hit a wide range of SubSaharan African countries and the Arabian Peninsula. This review article mainly demonstrates how the virus
affects humans, its causes, and conditions associated with RVF and currently available treatments. |
