In most cases the clinical picture of infection is mild. However 3 arbovirus were recently involved in fatal cases: in 1983 West-Nile virus has been isolated in 4 patients with hepatitis. 2 fatal cases of Yellow Fever occurred in 1985 and 1986, and from 1983 to 1986 Rift Valley Fever virus was isolated in patients who died from hemorrhagic fever.
