Viral Haemorrhagic Fever: A Threat to Life

ABSTRACT

Viral haemorrhagic fever refers to a group of diseases caused by different families of viruses, many of which cause severe diseases. The main characteristics are a severe multisystem syndrome that affects multiple organs and systems. The final result is the production of haemorrhages in distinct locations of the body, but this bleeding is rarely life-threatening. However, specific signs and symptoms vary with the type of virus. The majority have no other treatment than supportive therapy, although antiviral drugs can be used in some circumstances. A significant proportion of viral haemorrhagic fever cases involve travellers, so adequate protection measures are advised.
