“The #Hantavirus first emerged in 1950s in the American-Korean war in Korea (Hantan river). It spreads from rat/mice if humans ingest their body fluids. Human-human transmission is rare,” Swedish scientist Dr. Sumaiya Shaikh tweeted.
“Please do not panic, unless you plan to eat rats,” she stressed.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said hantavirus is rare — but put the death rate at 38%.

Now there are forwards of a new virus; #HantaVirus.

This is an old found virus. Transmitted from Rodents. It has not shown as contagious behavior as per data available. There are vaccines also for it. There were many records of it in past also.

Don't panic & don't forward.
According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); it is not airborne and can only spread to people if they come in contact with urine, feces, and saliva of rodents and less frequently by a bite from an infected host.

So they spread mainly by rodents.
It can cause #hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) and haemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).

There are no documentation of HPS Human to Human transmission. Whereas HFRS Human to Human Transmission are rare. Which means mostly non-contagious.

All sourced from CDC.

#Hantavirus nedir?

Hantavirüsler, fare gibi kemirgenlerden insanlara bulaşan ve bazı soy hatları Hantavirüs Pulmoner Sendrom (HPS) veya Böbrek Yetmezliği ve Kanamalı Ateş Sendromu (HFRS) olarak bilinen sendromlara neden olan bir virüs ailesidir.
Kemirgenlerin idrarı, dışkısı, tükürüğü ve bazen ısırığından saçılan aerosollerle insana bulaşırlar.

İnsandan insana bulaşma aşırı nadirdir. Dolayısıyla #koronavirüs örneğindeki gibi bir salgına neden olma ihtimalleri yok denecek kadar azdır.

Bugüne kadar çok az sayıda "#hantavirus salgını" yaşandı ve bunların hepsinde "salgın" boyu vaka sayısı birkaç (mesela 17) hastayı aşmadı.

Virus ini mudah diinaktivasi dengan panas, detergen, pelarut organik, dan larutan hipklorit. Kita juga harus sering membersihkan rumah, baju, dan makanan, karena mungkin saja TIKUS yang terinfeksi Virus Hanta telah membuang kotorang di Rumah,Baju,&Makanan kalian.
