new Langya virus has been identified in china's Shandong and Hernan 

the new Langya virus has been identified in 35 in china china's Shandong and Hernan provinces. the virus transmitted from animal-human but from human-human could not be determined

Chinese authorities state that none of the patients were in close contact or had common exposure history. This may mean that human infections are sporadic.

The Langya Henipavirs belongs to a family of fever-causing viruses that have a high fatality rate in case of severe infection

But none of the patients infected currently have exhibited serious or life-threatening symptoms, The symptoms include fever, cough, nausea, loss of appetite, etc.

The CDC director provided the details of a serological survey which revealed that of the tested animals, 2% of goats and 5% of dogs were positive for the virus.

However, a staggering 27% of shrews, which are a small insectivorous animal kind, tested positive. This may indicate that they are a natural reservoir of the Zoonotic Langya Henpavirus.

there is no preventive vaccine or treatment available as of now. The only way to go is to manage the symptoms and resulting complications through supportive care.
