Tracing Transmission of Sin Nombre Virus and Discovery of Infection in Multiple Rodent Species. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Virol, 2021
Orthohantaviruses cause severe disease in humans and can be lethal in up to 40% of cases. Sin Nombre orthohantavirus (SNV) is the main cause of hantavirus disease in North America.

Sin Nombre Virus Infection in Field Workers, Colorado, USA [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging 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.

Natural History of Sin Nombre Virus in Western Colorado

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
A mark-recapture longitudinal study of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody to Sin Nombre virus (SNV) in rodent populations in western Colorado (1994—results summarized to October 1997) indicates the presence of SNV or a closely related hantavirus at two ...

Increased Host Species Diversity and Decreased Prevalence of Sin Nombre Virus [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
Emerging outbreaks of zoonotic diseases are affecting humans at an alarming rate. Until the ecological factors associated with zoonoses are better understood, disease emergence will continue. For Lyme disease, disease suppression has been demonstrated by

A Longitudinal Study of Sin Nombre Virus Prevalence in Rodents, Southeastern Arizona

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 1999
We determined the prevalence of Sin Nombre virus antibodies in small mammals in southeastern Arizona. Of 1,234 rodents (from 13 species) captured each month from May through December 1995, only mice in the genus Peromyscus were seropositive.

Sin nombre virus and rodent species diversity: a test of the dilution and amplification hypotheses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Species diversity is proposed to greatly impact the prevalence of pathogens. Two predominant hypotheses, the "Dilution Effect" and the "Amplification Effect", predict divergent outcomes with respect to the impact of species diversity.

Contact heterogeneity in deer mice: implications for Sin Nombre virus transmission [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2009
Heterogeneities within disease hosts suggest that not all individuals have the same probability of transmitting disease or becoming infected. This heterogeneity is thought to be due to dissimilarity in susceptibility and exposure among hosts. As such, it has been proposed that many host–pathogen systems follow the general pattern whereby a

Removing Deer Mice from Buildings and the Risk for Human Exposure to Sin Nombre Virus

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
Trapping and removing deer mice from ranch buildings resulted in an increased number of mice, including Sin Nombre virus antibody–positive mice, entering ranch buildings.

Vesicular Stomatitis Virus-Based Vaccines Provide Cross-Protection against Andes and Sin Nombre Viruses

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Andes virus (ANDV) and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) are the main causative agents responsible for hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in the Americas.

Sin Nombre Virus in Deer Mice Captured Inside Homes, Southwestern Montana [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2000
From 1996 through 1999, 35 deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) were captured in 25 urban and suburban homes in southwestern Montana. Mice were captured throughout the year except for January; seven mice (20%) from seven (28%) of the homes were ...
