Rift Valley Fever (RVF) is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes that mainly affects livestock. It can also infect humans. While most human cases remain mild, it can cause death. The disease causes heavy economic and health losses for livestock farmers.
As a researcher, I have contributed to several studies on this mosquito-borne virus.
So, what exactly is Rift Valley fever, how it is treated, and how it can be controlled?
