This virus has been classified as Penaeus stylirostris hamaparvovirus. The genome is 4.1 kilobases in length. There are three open reading frames in its genome: [3] a left non structural protein (NS1) of 2001 base pairs (bp), a mid non structural protein (NS2) of 1092 bp and a right capsid protein of 990 bp. NSI appears to be a DNA helicase with ATPase activity.
Symptoms include fever, headache, cough and sore throat, the CDC said. Common signs can be a fever or flu-like symptoms followed by a reddish “slapped check” rash in children a few later ...
