Bunyaviridae--natural History

Obviously, the family Bunyaviridae is comprised of a large number of epidemiologically diverse viruses. They vary dramatically in their vector and vertebrate host relationships, geographic distributions, and epidemic potential in humans and animals. Public health practitioners, veterinarians, virologists, entomologists, biologists, ecologists, molecular biologists, and other scientists will all benefit from increased study and knowledge of this fascinating group of viruses.
