About the disease
Hantavirus spreads primarily through contact with infected rodent droppings, urine or saliva — not between people.
How it spreads →
Despite outbreak news cycles, hantavirus causes a very small number of annual cases worldwide compared to other infectious diseases.
Global data →
With one exception (Andes virus in southern South America), no hantavirus strain spreads directly between humans.
