Study Notes
Bunyavirus
- Transmitted by arthropods (mosquitoes), except for Hantavirus, which is carried by rodents
Coronavirus
- Causes respiratory illnesses like SARS and COVID-19, as well as enteric diseases
- COVID-19 is also known as coronavirus disease-2019
Orthomyxovirus
- Includes influenza A, B, and C viruses
- Type A is the most virulent in humans
- Flu-A serotypes include H1N1 (Spanish), H2N2 (Asian), and H5N2 (Avian)
- Hemagglutinin (H) allows the virus to bind to respiratory cells; there are 16 H subtypes
- Hemagglutinin is a protein of the viral surface
