Clinical Definition Distantly related to human herpes , a virus of this type is composed of a series of double strand sequences of up to 100 gene segments, aligned along a long chromosome surrounded by terminal DNA segments. The effect of the virus is to cause nasal discharge, a high fever, filmed over eyes, failures of the lymphatic system , inflammation of various mucus membranes , and occasionally necrosis of the upper digestive system. Very advanced cases show signs of decay of the nervous system . Occasionally, lesions, arthritis , and digestive problems such as diarrhea have been observed. ref Adams, S.W., and Mutt, LM. 1990.
