Identification of Hantaviruses
• Syndrome reported from Asia as
hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome
(HFRS) including in Korean War troops
• Virus isolated in 1976 from striped field
mouse trapped near Hantaan River in Korea
• No arthropod vector established
(... unique among genera of Bunyaviridae)

Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome
• Incubation: 5-35 days
• Prodrome: malaise, loss of appetite, nausea,
vomiting, conjunctivitis
• Decreased platelets, vascular permeability
• Hemorrhagic symptoms:
petechiae, conjunctival hemorrhage,
renal failure, GI bleeding
shock with 5-30% fatality rate

Sin Nombre Virus
• Circular single stranded; RNA
• Total genome 10500-22700 nucleotides long
• 100 (80-120) nm in diameter
• Surface projections of envelope distinct;
spikes (of about 10 nm)

Hantavirus (Cardio)Pulmonary Syndrome
• Agent: Sin Nombre virus, others
(e.g., Monongahela virus)
• Vector: deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus)
mouse exposure may not be recognized
• Regions: western US, Mexico, Canada for SNV;
other viruses throughout Americas
including South American
• Mild or asymptomatic disease rare
HPS Pathophysiology
• Replication primarily in pulmonary endothelial cells
– Found widely in capillary endothelial cells
• Interstitial pneumonitis and mononuclear infiltrates
– Vascular permability and capillary leakage result
• High neutralizing antibody with better outcome
• May be genetic predisposition – HLA
– In some studies Sin Nombre virus associated with
certain HLA types
– Puumala renal syndrome associated with HLA-B8DR3
HPS Presentation
• Incubation 1-6 weeks
• Prodrome: fever, chills, myalgias (aches in
legs and back) lasting 1-7 days
may be nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
• Cough, URI symptoms rapidly progress to
pulmonary edema, hypoxia, ARDS;
cold/flu syndrome without: nasal discharge,
sore throat, sinusitis, ear infection
• Many causes of similar symptoms
HPS Clinical Course
• Shock with hypoxia, alveolar edema fluid
poor oxygenation causes renal failure
• Normal-to-low pulmonary wedge pressure
• Decreased cardiac index
• Increased systemic vascular resistance
• Mortality ~ 30%
HPS Laboratory Testing
• Hematology: low platelets, myelocytes, left
shift, elevated hematocrit, elevated WBC
• Chemistry: low albumin, elevated LDH,
elevated AST (SGOT), elevated ALT (SGPT)
• Serology: specific test for Sin Nombre virus
Asian viruses cross-react
paired IgM and IgG antibody testing
• Immunohistochemistry, PCR
serum, frozen tissue, tissue blocks, BAL
• Culture
Supportive Treatment
•Broad spectrum antibiotics until HPS proven
•Intensive care management: monitor
electrolytes, pulmonary, and hemodynamics
•Fluids (eg crystalloid) to get PAOP 12-15 mm
•Inotropic agents for myocardial contractility
Dobutamine 5 - 20 micrograms/kg/min
•? adult ECMO
Hantavirus Reservoirs
• Rodent hosts: genus (possibly species) specific
• Rodents shed but are not symptomatic
• Disease distribution follows rodent distribution
• No person to person transmission in N. America
• Virus in aerosolized urine, also feces, saliva
• Horizontal transmission among mice by
intraspecific aggressive behavior
Hantavirus and Deer Mice
• Sin Nombre virus throughout range of deer mice
• Difference in prevalence of mouse infection
• Transmission horizontally including aggressive
encounters and bites
• Recently infected most likely to be infectious
Hantavirus Hypotheses
• Seasonal trends
– Virus overwinters in older adult mice with high
prevalence
– Young mice dilute prevalence
– Young mice progressively infected through summer
• Temporal trends
– Increased rainfall can increase food and mouse
populations
– Mild winter could increase winter survival and
prevalence
Mills Emerg Inf Dis Jan-Mar 1999
Hantavirus Infection of Deer Mice
• Trapping in Colorado 1994-1997
• Prevalence 9.5%
– Range 0-43% for trapping periods
– Males more likely to be infected
– Wounds were associated with infection at only
one of two trapping sites
Calisher Emerg Inf Dis Jan-Mar 1999
Hantavirus Infection of Deer Mice
• Trapping in Montana 1994-2004
– 244,600 trap nights of effort
• Multiple captures for 2,747 deer mice
• Found 99 seroconversions between consecutive
trapping sessions
– More likely to be older male, in breeding condition
– Not related to wounds or scars
– Infected mice with less weight gain than seronegative
Douglass J Wildlife Dis 2007 45:12-22
Hantavirus Infection of Deer Mice
• Trapping and fluorescent tagging in Utah 2005
– Study 15 days in Spring and 15 days in Autumn
– Five mice a night tagged and released
– Trapped following night, checked for fluorescence
• Infection prevalence 25-30%
– Mice with more contacts averaged 11 percent heavier
– No effect of gender or breeding condition
• May be higher prevalence of hantavirus in
populations where mice are older
– May reflect better food or cover
Clay Proc. R. Soc. B April 7, 2009
HPS Epidemiology
• Greater number of cases in spring-summer
– Varies by elevation, location, biome
• Rainfall preceding year increases food supply
prompting rodent population growth
• Risks – exposure through rodent excreta
MMWR June 9, 2006
Hantavirus Clusters in Argentina
• Hantavirus endemic in southern Argentina
• Clustering for 39% of cases (vs. 7.5% SNV)
• Eight clusters with > 2 weeks between cases
– Breast fed infant IgG positive, mother died with ARDS
– Wife symptomatic 20 days after husband who handled
mice
– Breast fed child with mild illness and seroconversion
19 days after mother
– Wife symptomatic 40 days after husband who cleared
plants in wilderness
