Oral Vaccination With Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Expressing Sin Nombre Virus Glycoprotein Prevents Sin Nombre Virus Transmission in Deer Mice [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is the major cause of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in North America, a severe respiratory disease with a high fatality rate. SNV is carried by Peromyscus maniculatus, or deer mice, and human infection occurs following

Experimental Infection of Peromyscus Species Rodents with Sin Nombre Virus [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2022 We demonstrate that 6 distinct Peromyscus rodent species are permissive to experimental infection with Sin Nombre orthohantavirus (SNV). Viral RNA and SNV antibodies were detected in members of all 6 species. P.

Sin Nombre Virus Infection in Field Workers, Colorado, USA [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010 We report 2 cases of Sin Nombre virus (SNV) infection in field workers, possibly contracted through rodent bites. Screening for antibodies to SNV in rodents trapped in 2 seasons showed that 9.77% were seropositive.

Development and Characterization of a Sin Nombre Virus Transmission Model in Peromyscus maniculatus [PDF]
Viruses, 2019 In North America, Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is the main cause of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), a severe respiratory disease with a fatality rate of 35⁻40%. SNV is a zoonotic pathogen carried by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), and few

Aerostability of Sin Nombre Virus Aerosol Related to Near-Field Transmission [PDF]
PathogensSin Nombre virus (SNV) is the main causative agent of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in North America. SNV is transmitted via environmental biological aerosols (bioaerosols) produced by infected deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus).
