【Abstract】 Nipah virus is a single strand RNA virus and belongs to Paramyxoviridae family. The virus was first isolated from a 1998—1999 outbreak of acute encephalitis in Malaysia. Its complete nucleotide sequence is 18 246 nt long, with the closest relationship to Hendra virus. Nipah virus causes acute encephalitis in human, with high mortality. Flying foxes are the native reservoir of the virus. The most of patients with fatal encephalitis in Malaysia outbreaks were infected from pigs. There is no evidence of person person transmission.更多还原
