It is normally found in southern and Eastern Europe, Central Asia, the Mediterranean, northwestern China, Africa, and the Indian subcontinent. The natural reservoirs are ticks and numerous animal species. Animals (e.g., cattle, sheep, goats, horses, pigs, hares, hedgehogs) infected with this virus usually have no clinical symptoms or suffer only a mild illness. The hemorrhagic fever is highly pathogenic and notable for aerosol transmission. This is a biosafety level 4 agent. 

Is a member of the New World hemorrhagic fever viruses normally found in Brazil. The natural reservoir is the rice rat (Oryzomys) and the virus is shed in their urine. Infection occurs after inhalation of dust contaminated with excreta from infected rats or from aerosol of animal blood or fluids. Does not produce disease in animals. This is a biosafety level 3 agent. 

It is a viral hemorrhagic fever normally found in South Asia. The natural reservoirs are ticks, monkeys, rodents, and porcupines. Ticks remain infective for life. This is a biosafety level 4 agent.
