This virus has the potential to cause emerging infectious diseases with high morbidity and mortality rates and is divided into Old World hantaviruses, commonly found in Asia and Europe and causing Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome, and New World hantaviruses, found in the Americas and causing Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome.
Hantaviruses are emerging zoonotic pathogens that represent a significant global threat due to their expanding geographic distribution, broad host range, and potential to cause severe disease in humans, with a case fatality rate of <1–15% in Asia and Europe and up to 50% in the Americas. These viruses are primarily tra...

Hantaviruses are increasingly regarded as an important emerging risk to global health, with an estimated annual impact on more than 200000 people worldwide. These pathogens are single-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the family Hantaviridae and are known to cause two major clinical syndromes in humans: Hemorrhagic fev...

Hantavirus in Venezuela: an ever-present threat
Hantaviruses belong to the genus Orthohantavirus, which comprises approximately 40 species of viruses whose natural reservoirs are rodents, in which infection is persistent and asymptomatic. Occasionally, they can be transmitted to humans, primarily through inhala-tion of...
This review synthesizes current knowledge on taxonomy, evolution, ecology, clinical features, diagnostics, and surveillance strategies to strengthen preparedness against emerging and neglected orthobunyaviruses.

Hantaviruses are zoonotic RNA viruses that cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome and are primarily maintained in rodent reservoirs. Transmission to humans occurs mainly by inhalation of aerosolized excreta from infected rodents, but Andes virus uniquely shows documented lim...
Hantavirus fevers (HF) are caused by pathogenic orthohantaviruses and are classified into two clinical forms: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), reported in Eurasia, and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), reported in the Americas. HF are characterised by an acute course with predominant involvement of inte...
