Hantaviruses in Estonia

Journal of Medical Virology, 2002
AbstractHuman serum samples collected from healthy individuals in 14 counties were screened by ELISA in order to investigate the presence of hantavirus infections in Estonia. Out of 1,234 serum samples, 124 were found positive for hantavirus‐specific IgG and were subsequently serotyped by a focus reduction neutralization test.

Hantaviruses

2011
Hantaviruses (genus Hantavirus, family Bunyaviridae) are rodent- and insectivore-borne zoonotic viruses. Several hantaviruses are human pathogens, some with 10-35% mortality, and cause two diseases: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Eurasia, and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in the Americas.

Replication of Hantaviruses

2001
Hantaviruses have a genome consisting of three segments of negative-sense, single-strand RNA (reviewed in Schmaljohn 1996a). The large (L), medium (M), and small (S) genomic segments, or vRNAs, code for the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), envelope glycoproteins (Gl and G2), and nucleoprotein (N), respectively. Nonstructural proteins have not

Vaccines Against Hantaviruses

2001
Hantaviruses are associated with two human diseases: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). These viruses are carried by persistently infected rodents, and are transmitted to humans by aerosolized rodent excreta. HFRS is characterized by fever, hemorrhagic manifestations, renal dysfunction, and shock.

Hantaviruses

1998
Abstract Hantavirus (HTV) is one of the recently discovered (1977) aetiological agents of acute viral haemorrhagic fever, and belongs as such to the group of ‘emerging viruses’ such as Ebola (1977), Guanarito (1991), and Sabia viruses (1994).

The Evolution of Hantaviruses

Immunological Investigations, 1997
Hantaviruses exist in most regions of the world. The many different strains identified thus far have widely divergent roles in human disease and infect a wide range of rodent hosts. The sequence data available for the genomes of these viruses allows us to study indirectly the evolutionary patterns of the hantaviruses.

Hantaviruses—Globally emerging pathogens

Journal of Clinical Virology, 2015
Hantaviruses are emerging zoonotic viruses which cause human disease in Africa, America, Asia, and Europe. This review summarizes the progress in hantavirus epidemiology and diagnostics during the previous decade. Moreover, we discuss the influence of ecological factors on the worldwide virus distribution and give an outlook on research perspectives ...

Vaccines for hantaviruses

Vaccine, 2009
Hantaviruses are assigned to categories A and C on the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Priority Pathogens list and to category C on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Emergency Preparedness and Response list of boterrorism agents/diseases.

Hantaviruses and Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1994
logical testing and autopsy findings did not indicate any known cause of acute respiratory illness and shock. Persons who were affected lived in rural areas of northwestern New Mexico and northeastern Arizona, but there was no obvious epidemiologic connection between patients.
