The viral hemorrhagic fevers ( VHFs ) are a diverse group of animal and human illnesses that are caused by four distinct families of RNA viruses : the Arenaviridae , Filoviridae , Bunyaviridae , and Flaviviridae . All types of VHF are characterized by fever and bleeding disorders and all can progress to high fever, shock and death in extreme cases. Some of the VHF agents cause relatively mild illnesses, such as the Scandinavian nephropathia epidemica , while others, such as the African Ebola virus , can cause severe, life-threatening disease.
