China has discovered a new deadly virus within its perimeters, which specialists say could activate yet another pandemic.
The Langya Henipavirus referred to as “Langya,” has infected 35 people already, according to Taiwan’s Centers for Disease Control.
Langya Virus is in the same family as the Hendra and Nipah viruses.
None of the Infected has died or suffered severe sickness, But it’s a virus that hasn’t infected human beings prior to this outbreak—so there are lots of uncertainties.
Being under the Henipavirus family, it has the prospect to do some grave damage —which data ranks Henipavirus with a 40-75% fatality rate.
The symptoms include Fever, headache, cough, fatigue, etc.
A statement by the New England Journal of Medicine says the infected patients had a history of being in contact with animals—however, it’s now possible the virus has already been transmitted from human to human.
