    Area of Science:

    • Virology
    • Epidemiology
    • Ecology

    Context:

    • West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Japanese encephalitis complex of Flaviviridae, is a significant public health concern.
    • Recent epidemic outbreaks of WNF with high mortality occurred in Romania (1996), Southern Russia (1996), and New York (1999).

    Purpose:

    • To review the history, distribution, ecology, epidemiology, and clinical manifestations of West Nile fever.
    • To analyze the etiological factors contributing to sudden, high-mortality WNF outbreaks.
    • To provide recommendations for managing emerging infectious diseases and epidemic emergencies.

    Summary:

    • This review synthesizes data on West Nile fever, covering its historical context, geographic spread, ecological factors, epidemiological patterns, and clinical presentation.

  • The analysis focuses on the drivers of recent severe WNF epidemics in Europe and North America.
  • Evidence-based recommendations are proposed to reduce the impact of emerging infections.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of West Nile fever for researchers and public health officials.
    • Informs strategies for the prevention and control of WNV and similar emerging viral diseases.
    • Contributes to preparedness for epidemic emergencies caused by novel infectious agents.
