Over the past few decades understanding and recognition of hantavirus infection has greatly improved worldwide, but both the amplitude and the magnitude of hantavirus outbreaks have been increasing. Several novel hantaviruses with unknown pathogenic potential have been identified in a variety of insectivore hosts.

Humoral Immunity to Hantavirus Infection [PDF]
Hantaviruses are pathogens that sometimes pass from animals to humans, and they are found in parts of Europe, Asia, and North and South America. When human infection occurs, these viruses can cause kidney or lung failure, and as many as 40% of infected people die.

Hantavirus in rodents in the United States: Temporal and spatial trends and report of new hosts
In North America, the rodent‐borne hantavirus pulmonary syndrome is predominantly caused by the Sin Nombre virus, typically associated with the deer mouse Peromyscus maniculatus.

Progress on the Prevention and Treatment of Hantavirus Disease
Hantaviruses, members of the order Bunyavirales, family Hantaviridae, have a world-wide distribution and are responsible for greater than 150,000 cases of disease per year.

Hantaviruses, etiologic pathogens responsible for two severe human diseases, exist in areas ranging from Eurasia to America and remain global public health concerns. Conventionally, plaque formation assays have been used for hantavirus titering. However,

INTRODUCTION:Hantaviruses are a group of single-stranded RNA viruses carried by small rodent reservoirs, transmitted to humans through inhalation of aerosolized particles of rodent feces, urine, or saliva.

Hantavirus host assemblages and human disease in the Atlantic Forest.
Several viruses from the genus Orthohantavirus are known to cause lethal disease in humans. Sigmodontinae rodents are the main hosts responsible for hantavirus transmission in the tropical forests, savannas, and wetlands of South America.

Unraveling the Mechanistic Links Between Species Diversity and Infection Risk From Zoonotic Pathogens With Direct Transmission Among Reservoir Hosts: Rodent-Orthohantavirus Systems as Models. [PDF]
In this review, we synthesize mechanistic evidence for diversity‐disease patterns in rodent‐orthohantavirus systems in the Americas, models of directly transmitted disease systems. We found that host regulation has been examined the most while other mechanisms have received less attention. Based on our findings, we propose that for a negative diversity‐
