Bunyavirales are negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses. It is the only order in the class Ellioviricete.
The bunyavirus family contains five genera:
• Orthobunyavirus,
• Phlebovirus,
• Nairovirus,
• Tospovirus,
• Hantavirus
• Most of the above viruses are transmitted by arthropods (e.g., ticks, mosquitoes, and sand flies) and cause serious human disease.
• A majority of bunyaviruses are vector-borne. With the exception of Hantaviruses and Arenaviruses, all viruses in the Bunyavirales order are transmitted by arthropods (mosquitoes, tick, or sand-fly). The mode of transmission of hantavirus is when one comes in contact with deer mice feces.
The hantaviruses are evolutionarily adapted to a specific rodent host, and thus rodents, including rats and mice, act as viral reservoirs. Human infection occurs following unusual or intense contact with infected rodent populations. The virus is transmitted primarily through the inhalation of dust that contains dried rodent excreta.
