As health authorities reiterate that both Kerala and West Bengal remain endemic zones for Nipah virus, infectious disease specialists say the focus must remain firmly on early identification, hospital preparedness and strict infection control, rather than panic.

Nipah virus, though rare, is among the most lethal viral infections known, with fatality rates far exceeding many other respiratory illnesses. Speaking to Dr. Deep Narayan Mukherjee, Consultant – Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, CK Birla Hospitals, CMRI, explained why even a handful of cases demand serious attention.
