Plasma Exchange for Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome: A Mechanistic Case for an Untested Intervention
ABSTRACT Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) carries a case fatality rate of 35%–40% and has no approved pharmacologic treatment. Its pathophysiology is rooted in the plasma compartment: cytokines, viral antigens, immune complexes, and platelet‐binding glycoproteins circulate as drivers of immunopathologic endothelial injury, noncardiogenic pulmonary ...

Humoral Immunity to Hantavirus Infection
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.

Mathematical Modeling of Pulse‐Seeded Metapopulation Dynamics for Andes Hantavirus Border Dispersal
A pulse‐seeded metapopulation SEIR model for Andes hantavirus maritime dispersal shows that heterogeneous quarantine compliance determines secondary outbreak risk. The weakest‐compliance country governs global containment, while uniform compliance above ∼65%$$ \sim 65\% $$ reduces the global reproduction number below unity.
