About HantaView

Public hantavirus awareness, built in the open

Our Mission

HantaView exists to make accurate, up-to-date hantavirus information accessible to the public. Hantavirus outbreaks receive limited mainstream coverage despite causing significant mortality — particularly in South America, where the Andes strain is the only known hantavirus capable of human-to-human transmission.

We aggregate data from authoritative public health organisations and present it clearly, without speculation or sensationalism.

What We Cover

Outbreak tracking — active clusters including the 2026 MV Hondius Andes hantavirus event, sourced directly from WHO Disease Outbreak Notices
Global case map — historical country-level case data for endemic regions across the Americas, Europe, and Asia
Symptoms & prevention — clinically accurate guidance based on CDC and WHO recommendations
News feed — aggregated from Google News, surfacing CDC, WHO, and major health outlet coverage in real time

Data Sources

Every statistic on HantaView is sourced and cited. Our primary sources are:

World Health Organization (WHO) ↗Disease Outbreak Notices, global burden estimates
US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) ↗US cumulative case data, symptom and prevention guidance
Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) ↗Americas regional case counts, alerts, and CFR data

HantaView does not publish estimates, projections, or unverified figures. If a data point cannot be attributed to an official source it is not shown.
