Introduction
This group of viruses has three distinct genera, two of which are of veterinary concern. Flaviviruses, which are endemic vector-borne neurotropic viruses, include louping ill and West Nile Virus. Pestiviruses include Swine Fever and Bovine Virus Diarrhoea and present more hemorrhagic disease. Hepatitis C in man is also grouped in this classification.
Morphology
- Medium sized enveloped viruses
Types and Subtypes
Flaviviruses
Louping Ill
West Nile Virus
Yellow Fever (man)
Pestiviruses
All three pestiviruses of veterinary importance are closely related to one another. All three induce cross-reacting antibodies but there is no evidence for closer antigenicity.
