| Summary: | For outbreak of any new viral disease, three things are need to be determined:
Naming the disease,
Type of the virus, and
Name of the species.

the virologists are responsible for the second, and
the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) is concerned with the designation and naming of virus taxa (i.e. species, genus, family, etc.) |
