Nipah virus, Zoonotic transmission, Diagnosis, Prevention, TreatmentAbstract
Nipah virus (NiV) has emerged as a deadly zoonotic pathogen, causing sporadic outbreaks with high mortality rates. The patient typically exhibits thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and transaminitis along with fever, encephalitis, and/or respiratory involvement. This comprehensive review delves into the multifaceted realm of Nipah virus infection control measures. We explore the latest research, strategies, and practices aimed at preventing, containing, and mitigating the impact of NiV outbreaks. From surveillance and diagnosis to treatment and public health interventions, this review offers a holistic perspective on the ongoing efforts to combat this deadly virus.
