An overview of Usutu virus
Abstract
Usutu virus (USUV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that emerged in Africa in the middle of the 16th century and currently widely circulates in several European countries. Herein, we summarize current knowledge about USUV from ecology, epidemiology, phylogeny to clinical manifestations and diagnosis and discuss the role as human pathogen.
Keywords: Ecology; Epidemiology; Human infection; Phylogeny; Structure; Usutu virus.
