#Hantavirus has made the IL Right to Mask Bill (SB3340) all the more urgent as folks seek to protect themselves from multiple concurrent disease outbreaks. Would you take 2 minutes to fill out this witness slip and mark yourself as a proponent of the bill?

Der #Hantavirus-Ausbruch auf dem niederländischen Kreuzfahrtschiff "Hondius" geht auf das #Andesvirus zurück, ein in Südamerika verbreiteter Virusstamm, bei dem Übertragungen von Mensch zu Mensch möglich sind. www.n-tv.de/wissen/Wie-a...

Party wurde Superspreading-Event: Wie auf einen Hantavirus-Ausbruch 2018 in Argentinien reagiert wurde

Es ist das Jahr 2018: Ein Mann ist in der argentinischen Provinz Chubut zu einer Geburtstagsparty eingeladen. Trotz Fieber geht er hin - und steckt dort mehrere Menschen mit dem Hantavirus an. Einige von ihnen sterben. Doch der Erreger kann anschließend in Schach gehalten werden.

The PCR study of the KLM flight stewardess has been negative, as expected for this virus.

Breaking News....and it's good! We just broke this on Inside Medicine. A hospitalized flight attendant who worked on a KLM flight that carried a female cruise ship passenger who subsequently died of Andes virus—the hantavirus that has infected several people on a cruise ship—has tested negative for the virus, Inside Medicine has learned. The source was the Director-General of the WHO, Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus. If the flight attendant had tested positive, it would have been a major escalation in this story. More information on testing and what we know is here... https://insidemedicine.substack.com/p/scoop-dutch-flight-attendant-tests?r=5p3cr&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

This is a cool CSIRO article on Hantaviruses― difference between European/Asian Hantaviruses and South American ones.

It adds cardio to pulmonary in the HPS, to make the acronym of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome, HCS.

Hantavirus: the ‘silent’ virus

As a hantavirus outbreak makes global headlines, CSIRO researchers are investigating how these rodent-borne viruses spread and why different strains target specific human organs, like the lungs or kidneys, with such varying levels of severity.

@Heidentweet "type of hantavirus spread by rodents in South America and, less commonly, by other infected people. Causes severe respiratory disease in people, Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome. The only known type of hantavirus to spread person-to-person, usually limited to close contact with a sick person. Incl/ direct physical contact, prolonged time spent in close or enclosed spaces, and exposure to the sick person's body fluids. The rodents not found in the US." (CDC, 2026)

What is the Andes virus? The hantavirus linked to a cruise ship outbreak is among the deadliest strains

The strain of hantavirus that has killed three people and sickened five others on a cruise ship is the Andes strain, which is typically found in South America.

Küchenspekulation: Party in #Argentinien 2018, Kreuzfahrtschiff im Südatlantik 2026.

Gemeinsamkeiten: Schwankende Leute, Erbrechen und enge Kontakte.

Vielleicht spielen Körperflüssigkeiten bei Andes-Virus-Clustern eine größere Rolle als bislang angenommen.

CORRECTION:

30 people have disembarked, not 23.

Their nationalities (not necessarily where they went):

Canada 2
Switzerland 2
Germany 1
Denmark 1
United Kingdom 7
Saint Kitts & Nevis 1
Netherlands 3
New Zealand 1
Singapore 1
Sweden 1
Turkey 2
USA 6
Unknown 2
TOTAL 30

• the ship left Argentina on Apr 1

• the above disembarked on Apr 24

👇👇👇
• symptoms of the #AndesVirus occur within 1-8 weeks
👆👆👆

#HantaVirus

What else do I find concerning?

That the 30 people who were on the cruise ship Hondius, and have left to go back to their home countries, a handful of which are now in the US (who have quit WHO and seem hell bent on destroying any semblance of healthcare), are only being "monitored".

Symptoms can take 8 weeks to show up w/the #AndesVirus and I don't understand why they aren't being quarantined for 8 weeks since this #HantaVirus can spread human-to-human

We've learned nothing.

IMO

*EDITED

Dieser #Hantavirus / #Andesvirus Hype ist ja definitiv eine reine Medienschlacht.

Wer auch nur eine Minute Zeit investiert und mal einen Artikel zu Hantaviren liest, weiss, dass das niemals eine Pandemie wird.

Aber die Hypochonder sind natürlich alle schon wieder völlig aus dem Häuschen…
