Lassa fever transmission

Natural transmission of VHP to humans usually occurs from contact with infected animals, or through the bite of an infected insect vector such as a tick. The virus can also be spread by person-to-person transmission via any body fluid. Sexual transmission of Lassa virus has been reported. Lassa fever may also be spread by inhalation of airborne particles from the excretions of infected rodenis, although there is no documented evidence of human-to-human airborne transmission. [Pg.178]
