Lassa Fever Resources

In early September 2024, the Missouri Department of Health reported that a patient with no known exposure to animals that may carry avian influenza was infected with the disease. The patient was only identified as having avian influenza when the patient’s blood specimen was sent to the CDC for testing. This was several days after the patient had been hospitalized.
