In this article we study abiut Lymphocytic choriomeningitis infection (LCMV) is a rodentborne microbe that has a place with the sort Mammarenavirus, family Arenaviridae. The house mouse (Mus musculus) is viewed as the supply of LCMV (1). People can be tainted with LCMV by breathing in particles debased with rat excreta, during organ transplantation, or inherently during pregnancy (2). The side effects of LCMV contamination range from subclinical to extreme (3); serious diseases may show as meningitis or encephalitis or as an intrinsic condition including microcephaly, for instance .

In light of the cosmopolitan appropriation of its repository have, LCMV in all likelihood courses around the world. Be that as it may, most epidemiologic investigations on LCMV have been led in Europe, the United States, Japan, and China. The presence and seroprevalence of LCMV contaminations in the Middle East locale have stayed obscure (11,12). We report on LCMV seroprevalence, intense LCMV diseases, and portrayal of phylogenetically unmistakable nearby LCMV strains in southern Iraq.

Study site (red) in Dhi Qar Governorate, Nasiriyah locale, Iraq, from where serum and cerebrospinal liquid examples were gathered from people in rustic and metropolitan zones and evaluated for lymphocytic choriomeningitis infection.
