Abstract:Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a infectious disease caused by the Phlebovirus belonging to the Bunyaviridae family (also known as SFTS virus). The disease has been reported in China, South Korea and Japan. However there is no credible clinical treatment for this disease. Therefore, early diagnosis of the disease is particularly important to prevent viral transmission and improve patient survival. This article mainly summarizes the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of the disease, and provides reference for subsequent research.
