Tanganya virus

Tanganya virus (TGNV) is an enveloped, single-stranded, negative-sense RNA virus, possibly of the genus orthohantavirus in the Bunyavirales order. It is the second indigenous Murinae-associated African hantavirus to be discovered. It has a low sequence similarity to other hantaviruses and serologically distinct from other hantaviruses. Its host is Crocidura theresae.

Symptoms
The symptoms of the Tanganya virus are high fever, severe headache, and severe malaise. Severe haemorrhagic manifestations may appear between five and seven days from symptom onset. However, not all cases have haemorrhagic signs, and fatal cases usually have some form of bleeding, often from multiple areas.
