France reports first fatal human case of Shamonda virus
Original: France reports first human case of livestock virus Shamonda after patient dies
French health authorities have reported the country's first human case of the Shamonda virus, a livestock virus transmitted by insects, after the infected patient died. The virus, previously known mainly to affect cattle in parts of Africa, has not been recorded in humans in France before. Health officials are investigating how the person was exposed and whether others are at risk.
Why now: The death of a patient from a virus previously unseen in humans in France has raised concern about the spread of animal diseases to people.
