Hantavirus a new Threat
The Centre for Disease Control says that the virus spread largely from rodents. It continues to say that disease with any of the hantaviruses can cause hantavirus disease in an individual. "In America Hantaviruse are known as “New World” hantaviruses and may cause hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). Other hantaviruses, known as “Old World” hantaviruses, are frequently operating in European and Asiatic nations. The Centre for Disease Control website says “this may cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS)." The hantavirus crisis comes at a time when the total count of those infected by novel coronavirus globally is nearing the 400,000 mark and scientists are yet to find a cure for it. The global death toll has crossed the mark of 16,500.
