// nothing @import "../css/default.css"; Free Health Encyclopedia Sick! V2 HANTAVIRUS INFECTIONS DEFINITION Hantavirus infections are caused by a group of viruses known as hantaviruses. These viruses cause two serious illnesses in humans. They are hemorrhagic (pronounced heh-meh-RA-jik) fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). DESCRIPTION Hantaviruses live in rodents, such as rats and mice, without causing any symptoms. The viruses can be transmitted (passed on to) humans by way of urine, feces, or saliva from the rodents. Five different kinds of hantaviruses have been discovered so far. Each is found in a different geographical region and in different kinds of rodents. As an example, the virus known as the hantaan virus is carried by the striped field mouse. It is found primarily in Korea, China, East Russia, and the Balkans. This virus causes HFRS. Another type of hantavirus is called the Sin Nombre virus. It is carried by the deer mouse and found primarily in southwestern United States and causes severe cases of HPS. SYMPTOMS The two forms of hantavirus infections each have distinctive symptoms.

The worst years were 1993 followed by a pernicious stretch between 1998 and 2000. http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/45002.html

Of those 30 persons, 23 resided in the four-corners region (14 in New Mexico, six in Arizona, and three in Colorado). Previously reported cases outside the four-corners states occurred in a Nevada resident (1) and a Texas resident (2), neither of whom had traveled to the four-corners area, and a resident of another state who had traveled to and presumably was infected in the four-corners area (3). This report summarizes the other four confirmed cases and describes two cases under investigation; all of these cases occurred outside the four-corners area during July 1992-August 1993. Confirmed Cases California. Two cases have been confirmed in California. In the first, in July 1993, a 27-year-old field biologist, who was working on the eastern slope of the California Sierra Nevada mountain range, had acute onset of an illness characterized by 2 days of fever, myalgia, and headache. The patient developed rapidly progressive bilateral interstitial infiltrates and hypoxemia and died the following day. Hantavirus infection was confirmed by IgM serology, PCR, and a positive immunohistochemical stain for hantavirus antigen on lung tissue. The second case was in a 29-year-old ranch worker on the California coast who died of rapidly progressive respiratory failure during September 1992, following 3 days of fever, myalgia, and cough. Recent immuno- histochemical staining of preserved autopsy tissues revealed hantavirus antigen. Neither person had recently traveled to the four-corners area.

Hantavirus is carried by wild rodents, primarily deer mice. It is found in rodent droppings and urine and can be inhaled by humans when it becomes airborne. The airborne virus can cause Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), a rare illness that can be fatal. Early signs of Hantavirus illness are similar to the flu, including fatigue, fever, muscle aches, headache, dizziness, chills, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. Later symptoms of HPS include coughing, shortness of breath rapidly progressing to severe breathing difficulty, and sometimes death. “There is no specific treatment for Hantavirus, but residents can avoid exposure to the virus,” said Gary Erbeck, director of the Department of Environmental Health. “Proper cleaning techniques are important. Clean up rodent droppings and urine using the wet cleaning method.” Do not sweep or vacuum rodent droppings and urine, using the method below instead:

Ettestad, DVM, MS Source: From the Division of Epidemiology, Evaluation, and Planning, New Mexico Department of Health, PO Box 26110, Santa Fe, NM 87502. Date: Mar 15, 1995; reviewed 1995 A 45-year-old woman was living with her husband in a 2-year-old home in a semirural area of the northeastern United States. On a Monday in mid-May, she went fishing and stuck herself with a fishhook; on the same day, she developed fever. Clinic physicians prescribed erythromycin because they were concerned about possible infection from the fishhook wound. On Tuesday, the patient developed body aches and chills, and went to a local medical clinic. On Thursday, she had severe coughing, vomiting, and diarrhea; so she went to the emergency room of the local hospital. She had developed breathing difficulty and was found by radiography to have bilateral pneumonia. Her oxygen saturation value was very low, and the physician diagnosed adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The patient was transferred to a regional hospital. The family had a cat and a dog that spent time inside and outside the home. One month prior to her illness, the patient had spent a week at a friend's house in the suburban Los Angeles area. Two weeks prior to her illness, the patient and her friend were at the patient's home and had swept a few mouse droppings out of the garage. After that, the patient went alone for a few days of hiking along the Appalachian Trail.

We are most active in the study of zoonotic viruses (especially hantaviruses). We are increasingly involved in developing novel treatments for hantavirus diseases based upon studies of the interactions of these viruses with their receptors and their marked ability to induce a brisk innate immune response in susceptible cells. Because we have amassed extensive experience and a large array of diagnostic antigens, we have become the major reference center for the Western Hemisphere for rapid and accurate hantavirus diagnosis.
