Ecological trait data for 214 human RNA virus species collected via literature search and supporting R script for classification tree and random forest analyses.

Data describes known virulence and fatalities, transmission routes, tissue tropisms, and host range for each virus species. Data was compiled via structured literature searches following Woolhouse & Brierley (2018). Full data dictionary is provided in-file.
