Multiple Synchronous Outbreaks of Puumala Virus, Germany, 2010 [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
To investigate 2,017 cases of hantavirus disease in Germany, we compared 38 new patient-derived Puumala virus RNA sequences identified in 2010 with bank vole–derived small segment RNA sequences.

Host-Associated Absence of Human Puumala Virus Infections in Northern and Eastern Germany [PDF]

open access: diamondEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
Human hantavirus disease cases, caused by Puumala virus (PUUV), are mainly recorded in western and southern areas of Germany. This bank vole reservoir survey confirmed PUUV presence in these regions but its absence in northern and eastern regions.

Puumala Virus RNA in Patient with Multiorgan Failure [PDF]

open access: diamondEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
To the Editor: The hantaviruses (genus Hantavirus, family Bunyaviridae) include human pathogens and occur worldwide (1). In Western and Central Europe, the predominant serotype is Puumala virus (PUUV), which causes epidemic nephropathy. We report the first Austrian patient with reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)–confirmed PUUV ...

Patterns of Puumala virus infection in Finland

open access: diamondEurosurveillance, 2003
Puumala hantavirus infection is prevalent throughout most of Europe, and in endemic areas it may be the most common cause of acute renal failure. To evaluate trends in incidence of Puumala virus infections in Finland, we analysed national surveillance data in 12-month periods from March 1995 to February 2002. During this time, 8184 laboratory-confirmed

Puumala and Tula Virus Differ in Replication Kinetics and Innate Immune Stimulation in Human Endothelial Cells and Macrophages [PDF]

open access: goldViruses, 2019
Old world hantaviruses cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) upon zoonotic transmission to humans. In Europe, the Puumala virus (PUUV) is the main causative agent of HFRS.

Risk Factors for Human Infection with Puumala Virus, Southwestern Germany [PDF]

open access: diamondEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Puumala virus, which causes nephropathia epidemica (NE), is the most prevalent hantavirus in Germany; bank voles serve as the main reservoir. During 2001-2007, most NE cases reported from Germany occurred in the southwestern state of Baden-Württemberg.
