Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers (VHFs) are severe, life-threatening illnesses caused by several families of RNA viruses. They are characterized by fever, bleeding disorders, and multi-organ failure, primarily affecting people in specific endemic regions or during outbreaks. Many VHFs originate in animal hosts like rodents or bats.
