Hantavirus infection mimicking leptospirosis: how long are we going to rely on clinical suspicion?
Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2014 Hantavirus infections and leptospirosis can have similar clinical and epidemiological features. We present here a case study of a young farmer with fever during the post-flood leptospirosis outbreak in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka, in 2011.

Incidence Rate for Hantavirus Infections without Pulmonary Syndrome, Panama
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2011 During 2001–2007, to determine incidence of all hantavirus infections, including those without pulmonary syndrome, in western Panama, we conducted 11 communitywide surveys. Among 1,129 persons, antibody prevalence was 16.5%–60.4%.

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]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.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‐
