Study: Fatal measles complication not as rare as previously thought
... SSPE is a neurological disorder that can appear years after a person is infected with measles and is always fatal. To assess the rate of SSPE, researchers looked at cases in California from 1998-2015 based on data from death certificates, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the ...

Marburg virus disease
Marburg virus disease (MVD; formerly Marburg hemorrhagic fever) is a severe illness of humans and non-human primates caused by either of the two marburgviruses, Marburg virus (MARV) and Ravn virus (RAVV). MVD is a viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF), and the clinical symptoms are indistinguishable from Ebola virus disease (EVD).
