| − | 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.
