Lassa fever virus is mainly a zoonosis (a disease that is animal-borne or
spread to humans from animals). It is spread to people through contact with
household items, food, water, or air contaminated with the droppings or urine
of infected multimammate rats (Mastomyces natalensis). These rodents
live throughout West Africa in homes, and they can shed this virus without
being ill. People most often become infected by inhaling air contaminated with
aerosols of rodent excretions, swallowing the virus in food or contaminated
utensils, preparing
and eating multimammate rats (meat of wild or
non-domesticated animals, called bush meat or wild meat, is often prized as a
delicacy), and contact with open wounds. Staying in homes or areas
of poor sanitation or crowding, as well as health care are most at risk. Here
are ways to prevent you from Diseases caused by Rodents and Unclean
