Omsk hemorrhagic fever

Omsk hemorrhagic fever is a rare zoonotic disease caused by the Omsk hemorrhagic fever virus. It is known to affect people through animal reservoirs, leading to illness characterized by fever and other systemic symptoms. The condition has been observed with features such as nausea, muscle pain (myalgia), and bleeding problems that are moderately severe in some cases. In addition to these symptoms, some people with this condition may experience complications such as meningitis, pneumonia, or kidney issues (nephrosis). This condition remains a subject of medical study due to its distinct clinical presentation and its cutaneous transmission from animals to humans.

People with Omsk hemorrhagic fever typically experience a fever, nausea, and muscle pain. They may also exhibit moderately severe bleeding (hemorrhagic manifestations). In some cases, additional complications like meningitis, pneumonia, and kidney issues (nephrosis) have been reported.

Omsk hemorrhagic fever is caused by an infection with the Omsk hemorrhagic fever virus. As a zoonotic disease, it is transmitted from animals to humans. Detailed information about additional risk factors or specific transmission methods is not provided in the current sources.
