(18) Principles of Viral Hemorrhagic Fever (VHF) group of febrile illnesses ranging in severity from relatively mild to life-
threatening. Caused by four distinct viral families: Arenaviridae,
Filoviridae, Bunyaviridae, and Flaviviridae. All VHFs characterized by
fever, overall vascular system damage, and bleeding disorders that can
lead to high fever, shock, and death. Although distributed over much of
the world, many VHFs are present in geographically limited areas and
risk of infection is restricted to those areas.


(18) Systemic Mycosis fungal infections capable of affecting all internal organs. Persons with a
competent immune system may be asymptomatic or show only minor
symptoms. Immune-compromised patients (including persons with HIV,
cancer, or neutropenia, organ transplant recipients, patients recovering
from pancreatitis or splenectomy, those with diabetes, the very old, and
the very young) are at high risk for infection. Treatment may include
adjusting immune-suppressing medications or administering antifungal
medications.


(18) Visceral leishmaniasis serious form; fatal if untreated.


(18) Cutaneous leishmaniasis common form; sore forms at fly-bite site; long healing period (few
months to a year).


(18) Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis widespread skin lesions; difficult to treat.


(18) Mucocutaneous leishmaniasis skin ulcers that spread and can cause tissue damage to the nose and
mouth.
