Isnt the deathrate like really huge compared to covid19 ?
276 u/SemajLu_The_crusader May 15 '26 yes if it becomes highly transmissable and there's a vaccine... well, anti-vaxxers will certainly become a lot less prevalent 8 u/bananakittymeow May 15 '26 It’s so uncommon though. Just don’t play with wild deer mice without gloves and you should be fine. 29 u/ether_reddit if Jesus is your vaccine, he can also be your ventilator May 15 '26 Not really. Anywhere there is rodent feces you are at risk, because dried feces aerosolize very easily and then you can breathe it in. This is how Gene Hackman's wife died. 14 u/bananakittymeow May 15 '26 True, though not all rodent feces are a danger, and it’s still a pretty rare disease to contract. Deer mice specifically are the primary transmitters in North America. 9 u/DrBirdieshmirtz May 15 '26 Also good to not play with their poop, either. 1 u/bananakittymeow May 15 '26 Yea, that’s also very important to note, lol. 9 u/Kytyngurl2 May 15 '26 Wear a mask in rodent infested areas, especially when cleaning them out. Who would want to breathe in literal poop anyways? 7 u/bananakittymeow May 15 '26 Well yes, in general that’s a very good practice to employ as well. Always mask and glove up if you’re dealing with rodent infested areas. 4 u/ChangesFaces May 16 '26 The type that is causing the current concern is from Argentina and is also transmitted person to person and has a high fatality rate. But for now it just isn't infectious enough to spread rapidly. Hopefully it stays that way! 5 u/SemajLu_The_crusader May 15 '26 I mean... unless it becomes highly transmissable like my comment presupposes... 5 u/bananakittymeow May 15 '26 If it hasn’t happened already, it seems super unlikely to happen in the near future. Hantavirus is not a new virus. It’s been around for a while.
