Shuni Virus in Cases of Neurologic Disease in Humans, South Africa.

Thopisang P Motlou, Marietjie Venter.   

Abstract

We describe Shuni virus (SHUV) detection in human neurologic disease cases in South Africa. SHUV RNA was identified in 5% of cerebrospinal fluid specimens collected during the arbovirus season from public sector hospitals. This finding suggests that SHUV may be a previously unrecognized cause of human neurologic infections in Africa.
