“Researchers are investigating the source of a deadly outbreak of #hantavirus aboard the cruise ship MV Hondius last month.

A suggestion — that two retired Dutch ornithologists came into contact with infected rodents while birdwatching in southern Argentina — “never made much sense,” says virologist Palacios, because hantavirus is not known in the area.

Genomic evidence from ship-board infections point to an area 2,000 km to the north.

And a hitchhiking pigmy rat.”

Data is not enough: from Covid to measles, America must relearn risk communication

The confusion over hantavirus and Ebola is a reminder that we must do better at explaining how to respond to an outbreak

The Guardian
Falso que la Organización Mundial de Salud confirmó 149 nuevos casos de hantavirus

¿Qué pasó? En Instagram circula una publicación que asegura que la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) confirmó 149 nuevos casos de hantavirus. ¿Cómo lo calificamos? Consideramos que se trata de publicaciones falsas. ¿Cómo lo sabemos? El reporte más reciente de la OMS informa 13 casos asociados al brote ocurrido en el buque MV Hondius, no 149. Esa cifra corresponde al número de pasajeros que viajaban en el crucero. Además, el director de la OMS, Tedros Adhanom, confirmó el 6 de junio de 2026 que los casos reportados se mantienen en 13, incluyendo tres muertes.
