More than 3,500 people die from hepatitis viruses every day and the global toll is rising, the World Health Organization warned on Tuesday, calling for swift action to fight the second-largest infectious killer.

The study detailing the discovery has been published in the journal Virology. The research team said its discovery will help future researchers understand the evolution of papillomaviruses.

A new study reveals a surprising fact: humans are actually spreading more viruses to animals than we receive from them. This is due to our large population size, global reach, and activities that stress wildlife.

Mumps is a viral illness that usually affects the glands on each side of the face. However, mumps can affect any part of the body but mostly affects the saliva-making glands called the parotid glands.

Some of the deadliest diseases to stalk humankind have come from pathogens that jumped from animals to people. The virus that causes AIDS, for example, crossed over from chimpanzees.

A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine suggests that being infected with SARS-CoV-2 - the virus that causes COVID-19 - profoundly impacts brain health in many ways.

The Health Ministry expressed concern that changing weather patterns, brought on by shifting seasons, could create favourable conditions for the virus to spread.

Scientists have found a new way in which Ebola reproduces in the human body, identifying a potential target for drugs to prevent the viral disease.

The leading health official in Queensland urges the public to refrain from using the term 'long Covid' in light of recent research findings.

Dr Bell emphasises the urgent need for research and surveillance to understand the virus's adaptability and potential to infect more species.

Ancient viruses that infected vertebrates hundreds of millions of years ago played a pivotal role in the evolution of our advanced brains and large bodies, a study said Thursday.

Alaskapox belongs to the same genus as cowpox, monkeypox, and smallpox. It is especially prevalent in tiny animals, such as shrews and voles.

The COVID-19 virus has mutated 223 times globally and its harmful effects have come down substantially over time, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said in Lok Sabha on Friday.

Other wildlife affected by bird flu in the Antarctic include elephant seals, fur seals, kelp gulls, and brown skuas.

The scientists stated that the melting Arctic permafrost could release the 'zombie viruses' and trigger a catastrophic global health emergency
