West Nile virus research. Scientist at the National Reference Centre for Arboviruses and Viral Haemorrhagic Fevers extracting RNA (ribonucleic acid) from a sample of West Nile virus (WNV). The RNA will be amplified (replicated many times) and then sequenced. This aids in research for diagnosis techniques and treatment, and tracks any mutations in the virus. WNV causes encephalitis (inflammation of the brain). It is transmitted by mosquitoes and infects both humans and animals. Symptoms can range from a mild fever to spontaneous bleeding of the skin and circulatory failure, which are often fatal.
