New Scientist, April 18, 2008 A team of disease hunters has announced the discovery of a deadly new virus, found in a remote village in South America. Experts say the virus - named Chapare - is probably limited to a small swathe of Bolivia, but urbanization and climate change could expand its range. Professor Charles Fulhorst, of the departments of pathology and microbiology and immunology at UTMB, says Chapare is the tip of the iceberg. Many new species of virus lurk in South America - and perhaps North America. "Just when you think you know what's out there, another one pops out," he says.
