The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted how quickly zoonotic diseases can spread globally. As a result, scientists worldwide have increased efforts to study viruses circulating in wildlife and improve early detection systems.

A viral 2022 tweet resurfaced during the MV Hondius hantavirus outbreak, fuelling panic online. Experts explain why misinformation spreads during health scares and how people can verify facts before sharing alarming posts.

Hantavirus has become a focal point of discussion as it recently spread on board an Atlantic cruise. Dr Jatin Ahuja, Dr J. Kirtana, and Dr Avi Kumar explain the different treatment protocols for patients.

Two Indian crew members are onboard the MV Hondius cruise ship linked to a deadly hantavirus outbreak that has killed three people. WHO says the virus spreads differently from Covid-19 and does not currently pose a pandemic threat.

Unlike Covid-19, hantavirus cannot be detected using rapid antigen kits. Doctors explain why diagnosis depends on specialised blood tests, PCR analysis and clinical suspicion, especially during severe respiratory illness outbreaks.

While a recent outbreak on the cruise ship involved the Andes strain, the only type known to pass between humans, transmission still requires very close, intimate contact.

A new study shows how the Covid virus may spread more widely by turning resistant lung cells into infection targets, offering clues to severe disease.
