Bas-Congo tibrovirus (BASV) is a poorly characterized rhabdovirus discovered in the blood of a patient who survived a severe illness resembling hemorrhagic fever.[1] The virus was named after the former Democratic Republic of Congo province of Bas-Congo (now Kongo Central). BASV was discovered using next-generation sequencing and attempts to isolate the virus were not successful. BASV RNA has only been detected in one individual and its role as a human pathogen has not been established.[2]
