This gall protects the fly larva and gives it plenty to eat. Other species eat dead animals, and many eat dung. Some filter microscopic food particles from fresh water. Parasitic flies make up one big group. They lay their eggs inside or on other insects and spiders, and the larvae feed on the inside of their host while it is still alive! A few species are parasites of vertebrates, such as mammals and birds, and get into wounds or under the skin. Flies and mosquitoes are one of the most successful insect orders with perhaps 250,000 species.
Children will usually experience a mild febrile illness. Adults may experience a dengue-like illness, while the elderly may develop an encephalitis that is sometimes fatal. No vaccine for the virus is available and there is no Hemorrhagic Fevers specific therapy. Among the arboviruses, it is difficult to distinguish clinically between West Nile, dengue, and chikungunya. Ilheus Virus This virus is found in Latin America where it causes a febrile illness with arthralgia. Occasionally a mild encephalitis is seen.
HOW VIRUSES MULTIPLY For a virus to multiply it must infect a cell. Viruses usually have a restricted host range (organism and cell type in which transmission is possible). All must make proteins with three functions: 1. ensure replication of the genome 2. package the genome into virus particles 3. alter the metabolism of the infected cell so that viruses are produced As the first step, the virus attaches to the cell wall or cell membrane of the host cell. It has two options now: either send its nucleic acid into the host cell (like bacteriophages) or enter the cell with its protein coat intact.
