Comment on "Public deserves to know”: Harvard Professor says official messaging contradicts hantavirus science
a4ng3l@lemmy.world 1 day agoI’m not knowledgeable enough to assess it myself but indeed WHO / OMS doesn’t seems that plussed about it. They just apply sound precautions. Though as far as I remember from COVID back then they were nonplussed as well until if was way too late.
So let’s wait and see and hope those precautions will be enough.

A big difference with this strain of hantavirus is it’s not a novel virus; this strain is endemic to South America and previous outbreaks have been studied and contained. That said, every infection does pose the risk of mutation.
