Byline: ANI Washington, Oct 31 (ANI): A novel antibody treatment may spell the end of the deadly Nipah virus and the related Hendra virus, according to a new study.
The etiologic agent, Nipah virus (NiV; family Paramyxoviridae, genus Henipavirus), is believed to have entered pig populations in Perak state, central Malaysia, from a fruit-bat reservoir (2) before spreading by transport of pigs among farms.
We will also begin immediate planting of sagu, berembang, nipah and rembau (trees) which are frequented by the fireflies, to boost their population," Wong said.
