Introduction
Togaviruses are so called because of their "cloak-like" appearance. They are often viruses that move through multiple hosts, as in the example of Equine Encephalitis Virus, which is transferred via vector to the horse and also has zoonotic potential.
Morphology
- Medium sized enveloped viruses
- 2 Genera:
- Alphavirus (notably including EEV)
- Rubivirus (including Rubella and German measles)
