Viliuisk Encephalomyelitis is the disease of the central nervous system. The first scientific observations of it were held by a German naturalist Richard Maak in 1887 during his trip to Viliuisk Okrug. The Yakut people called this disease Bohooror, that means in translation “growing numb”. The disease strikes only indigenous people – Yakuts, Evens, Evenkies, mostly from remote villages. Not only blood relatives can be ill, but also adopted kids, as well as the people who have lived with the sick for some time. Viliuisk Encephalomyelitis usually starts with high temperature (39-40C), fever, strong headache, muscular-ache, like influenza, and extreme rate of apathy. At the late stage the loss of memory and dementia, disorder of speech predominate and the muscular spasms strengthen. In most cases the disease leads to fatal outcome during 3-5 years.
