Wiley Novel And Re Emerging Respiratory Viral Diseases June 2008 eBook

The past decade has seen mounting global conce regarding viral
outbreaks such as SARS, avian influenza and West Nile virus.
In 2004 and 2005, reports of bird to human, and possible human to
human, transmissions of the H5N1 influenza viruses raised fears
that these viruses could cause a pandemic on the scale of the
Spanish flu pandemic of 1918. Previous to this, a novel
coronavirus had been identified as the aetiological agent of
the severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS, a new respiratory
viral disease that emerged at the end of 2002 and caused profound
disturbances in over 30 countries worldwide in 2003. It is not
known whether the SARS coronavirus will re emerge, especially
since its origins and potential reservoirs are unresolved.
However, these outbreaks have shown that these viruses can emerge
in any part of the world at any time.

This book critically evaluates the latest scientific evidence on
novel or re emerging viral diseases and brings together
contributions from world experts on this topic, explaining best
practice in their area, and discussing lessons leaed and how
best to collaborate to prevent and control future outbreaks.


Topics covered include:

latest advances in virology, particularly in the area of epidemiology
diagnostics
animal models for viral infection
antiviral and vaccine development

Novel and Re emerging Respiratory Viral Diseases offers a comprehensive
and interdisciplinary account of all aspects of the topic, from basic
molecular biology to public health issues, and is therefore essential
reading for virologists, infectious disease specialists, public health
managers, researchers and epidemiologists, as well as those working in
vaccine development, pharmaceutical medicine and drug discovery
