Infectious and parasitic diseases

Chikungunya fever

Chikungunya fever is an acute transmissible disease characterized by fever, intoxication and hemorrhagic syndrome.

Kiasanur Forest Disease (KLB) is an acute viral zoonotic infection of a person that occurs with severe intoxication, often with a two-phase fever, accompanied by severe hemorrhagic syndrome, prolonged asthenic manifestations.

Crimea-Congo hemorrhagic fever

Crimea-Congo hemorrhagic fever was first described on the basis of flash materials in the Crimea (Chumakov MP, 1944-1947), therefore it was called Crimean hemorrhagic fever (CGL). Later, cases of a similar disease were recorded in the Congo (1956), where in 1969 a virus was identified that was similar in antigenic properties to the Crimean hemorrhagic fever virus.

Rift Valley haemorrhagic fever

Hemorrhagic fever in the Rift Valley is a zoonotic disease and, first of all, is observed in various animals, it is much less likely to cause severe illness in people with high mortality.

Hemorrhagic fevers of the family Bunyaviridae

The Bunyaviridae family numbers more than 250 serotypes of the viruses that make up the five genera: Bunyavirus, Phlebovirus, Nairovirus, Hantavirus, Tospovirus. Typical viruses of these genera are: Bunyamver virus, Sicily mosquito fever virus, Nairobi sheep disease virus and Hantaan virus, respectively.

South American haemorrhagic fevers

South American haemorrhagic fevers (Argentine, Bolivian, Venezuelan) are common only in these regions and pose a serious problem for local health authorities.

Laos fever

Laos fever is an acute zoonotic natural-focal viral disease from a group of particularly dangerous viral infections in Africa. Characterized by the phenomena of universal capillarotoxicosis, liver, kidney, central nervous system, high lethality. Clinically manifested by fever, hemorrhagic syndrome, the development of renal failure.

Viral hemorrhagic fevers

Viral haemorrhagic fevers are a group of special natural focal infectious diseases that are recorded on all continents of the world, except Australia. Diseases are characterized by specific damage to the system of hemostasis (vascular, platelet and plasma links), multiorgan pathology with the development of severe hemorrhagic and intoxication syndromes, high lethality.

Miyaz: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Miasis - invasion by larvae of some species of flies and gadflies; characterized by polymorphism of clinical manifestations depending on the localization of the parasite.

Tungiosis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Tungiosis is a parasitic disease caused by a sand flea, characterized by the development of an allergic reaction, tenderness and erythematous papule.
