Infection with any of the following viruses can cause CNS disease in horses:

Family Bornaviridae, Genus Bornavirus

  • Borna Disease Virus

Family Bunyaviridae, Genus Bunyamweravirus

  • Cache Valley Virus

Family Bunyaviridae, Genus Orthobunyavirus

  • California Encephalitis viruses
    • Snowshoe Hare Virus
    • Jamestown Canyon Virus
  • Main Drain Virus

Family Flaviviridae, Genus Flavivirus

Family Paramyxoviridae, Genus Henipavirus

Family Rhabdoviridae, Genus Lyssavirus

Family Reoviridae, Genus Orbivirus

  • Equine Encephalosis Virus

Family Togaviridae, Genus Alphavirus

  • Aura Virus
  • Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus (EEV) **
  • Equine Togaviral Encephalitis|Western EEV **
  • Equine Togaviral Encephalitis|Venezuelan EEV **
  • Highlands J Virus
  • Getah Virus
  • Semliki Forest Virus
  • Ross River Virus
  • Una Virus

Other viruses implicated in equine encephalitis:

  • Maguari Virus

Legislation

Diseases caused by some of the viruses listed above (**) are subject to The Infectious Diseases of Horses Order 1987. "The Order, which revoked and replaced earlier legislation, makes these diseases compulsorily notifiable: it gives an inspector powers to declare an infected place where disease is suspected; to carry out a veterinary inquiry, prohibits the movement of horses carcases and other things onto or off the premises and requires cleansing and disinfection". Council Directive 90/426 describes all cases of equine encephalomyelitis (regardless of cause) as compulsorily notifiable to the EU.
