Popis: As a result of the intensive agricultural practices in the humid pampas of Argentina, a “new” arenaviral haemorrhagic fever emerged more than 50 years ago. With the aim of contributing to a better understanding of rodent-borne diseases, the epidemiology and ecology of Junin virus and the public health experience with Argentine haemorrhagic fever are reviewed here.
