Diseases associated with this family include feline calicivirus (respiratory disease), rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (often fatal hepatitis), and Norwalk group of viruses (gastroenteritis). [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Caliciviruses naturally infect vertebrates , and have been found in a number of organisms such as humans , cattle , pigs , cats , chickens ...
Sapovirus is a genetically diverse genus of single-stranded positive-sense RNA, non-enveloped viruses within the family Caliciviridae. [1] [2] Together with norovirus, sapoviruses are the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis (commonly called the "stomach flu" although it is not related to influenza) in humans and animals.
Vesivirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Caliciviridae. [1] Swine, sea mammals, and felines serve as natural hosts. There are two species in this genus. [1] Diseases associated with this genus include: respiratory disease, Feline calicivirus (FCV); conjunctivitis, and respiratory disease. [1] [2]
Lagovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Caliciviridae. [2] [3] Lagomorphs serve as natural hosts. There are two species in this genus. Diseases associated with this genus include: necrotizing hepatitis leading to fatal hemorrhages. [4]
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) is a virus in the genus Lagovirus and the family Caliciviridae.It is a nonenveloped virus with a diameter around 35–40 nm, icosahedral symmetry, and a linear positive-sense RNA genome of 6.4–8.5 kb.
Instead, infections happen as a result of what scientists call “spillover” from humans to animals, Erin Sorrell, an associate professor at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, tells ...
Norovirus infection is characterized by nausea, vomiting, watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, and in some cases, loss of taste. A person usually develops symptoms of gastroenteritis 12 to 48 hours after being exposed to norovirus. [11] General lethargy, weakness, muscle aches, headaches, and low-grade fevers may occur.
These diseases most commonly occur in cattle, mink and humans. In cattle, this occurs sporadically and infects individual animals. Symptoms of this infection include seizure, lateral recumbency and impaired coordination. Histological examinations showed neuronal necrosis and gliosis of the cerebral cortex, cerebellum, spinal cord and brainstem ...
