Scenario analysis for potential community spread of Andes virus (ANDV) [PDF]
EurosurveillanceWe simulated the potential community spread of Andes virus (ANDV) following the introduction of a single infectious individual in a generic population, based on epidemiological parameters derived from a human-to-human historical outbreak. Under current available evidence, our analyses suggest that, within 4 months from the index case’s symptom onset ...

Andes Virus Infection of Cynomolgus Macaques [PDF]
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2002 Andes virus (ANDV), a member of the genus Hantavirus, is a causative agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) and is the only hantavirus known to be transmissible from person to person. HPS is found in North and South America and is often fatal.

Temporal Analysis of Andes Virus and Sin Nombre Virus Infections of Syrian Hamsters [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2007 ABSTRACTAndes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) are rodent-borne hantaviruses that cause a highly lethal hemorrhagic fever in humans known as hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). There are no vaccines or specific drugs to prevent or treat HPS, and the pathogenesis is not understood.

Development of a minigenome system for Andes virus, a New World hantavirus [PDF]
Archives of Virology, 2012 The development of reverse genetics systems for negative-stranded RNA viruses is a rapidly evolving field that has greatly advanced the study of the many different aspects of the viral life cycle. Andes virus (ANDV) is a highly pathogenic hantavirus found in South America that causes hantavirus pulmonary syndrome but to date remains poorly ...
