Many infectious diseases have emerged or reemerged in Africa in the 21st century. Some of them are associated with newly discovered microorganisms such as Rickettsia felis and Tropheryma whipplei; others are known, historical diseases such as plague and cholera. In addition are diseases related to previously known microorganisms which recently have been involved for the first time in massive outbreaks with worldwide impacts (such as Ebola virus, Zika virus and Chikungunya virus). Research on emerging infectious diseases needs to be identified as a priority.

“…• Clinical feature: Variola is characterized by a prodromal period with fever, chills, vomiting, abdominal pain, malaise, and backache (Diven 2001), followed by the occurrence of a rash. Lesions appear initially on the palms, soles, and oral mucosa with centrifugal extension (Morand et al 2017), start as macules and evolve to papules, deep vesicles, pustules, and crusts that heal with scars. Characteristically, lesions are in the same stage of development at any time (Diven 2001).…”

Viral infections frequently present with mucocutaneous manifestations. Many of the eruptions are distinctive and self-limited, and the diagnosis is primarily based on the presenting pattern. Less often, the mucocutaneous lesions are accompanied by constitutional symptoms, and a delay in diagnosis and treatment of these diseases can lead to significant patient morbidity. Considering this, the chapter aims to present the most significant characteristics of the cutaneous virus infections which prepare the practitioners for identifying and managing of the viral skin diseases.
