MAYHEM Requiem. Now on @applemusic. 🥀🖤 #AppleMusicLive

@RVAwonk If you look at the study from 2018 none of the medical staff contracted the virus and they wore NO PPE

Omg even at the National Quarantine Unit where the hantavirus contacts are, they’re still only using surgical masks when people in quarantine interact with the medical staff. If one of them gets infected, you’ll know why.

@PaulNuki So then how are Argentinians surviving?!

This is NOT good news re the hantavirus ⬇️⬇️⬇️ The virus can remain in human semen for up to SIX YEARS following infection, according to a high quality Swiss study. Like some other viruses including Ebola, it has the potential for sexual transmission even after a person has recovered. The discovery means male patients are likely to be advised to change their sexual practices, as is the case with Ebola. The research was conducted at the Spiez Laboratory, a Swiss government institute tasked with fighting nuclear, biological and chemical threats, and was published in the journal Viruses. They investigated a Swiss 55-year-old man who had become infected with the Andes strain of the hantavirus in South America six years earlier. They found that although there was no longer any trace of the virus in man’s blood, urine and respiratory tract, it was still detectable in his semen 71 months later. They say the male testes may act as a “reservoir” where the virus can essentially “hide” and evade the body’s immune system, said the paper. “Taken together, our results show that the Andes virus has the potential for sexual transmission,” the 2023 study said, although this has never been documented with hantavirus. With Ebola, on the other hand, sexual transmission long after infection has been documented. A 2021 Ebola outbreak in Guinea, which resulted in 23 cases and 12 deaths, was later linked to a survivor of the West Africa 2014-2016 epidemic, who had gone on to spread the virus through sex. More....

@JonesJones48712 @unusual_whales So close that medical staff treating the outbreak in 2018 didn’t catch it while wearing minimal if any PPE

@unusual_whales Now would probably be a good time for officials to explain what “close contact” actually means, because I find it hard to believe every single person showing symptoms had extremely close contact.

BREAKING: One hantavirus cruise ship passenger being treated in Atlanta is now officially showing symptoms after the deadly outbreak on board, per FOX

Martinez VP et al, New England Journal of Medicine, 2020. The Epuyén Birthday Party outbreak. More than 80 healthcare workers had direct contact with severely ill patients throughout the outbreak. PPE adherence was minimal by the authors’ own account. Zero infections documented among healthcare workers. The R0 of 2.12 reported in this paper is also worth reading carefully. It was derived entirely from transmission events within intimate social contexts in a small village: birthday parties, wakes, households. It is not a general population estimate and should not be treated as one.

@SenseReceptor But what if those people were exposed to rat feces?

Covid fan favorite Leana Wen is back, talking about what else but possible "asymptomatic" hantavirus spread "There may well be more cases that arise" "We know the incubation period is long" "Then the question becomes: Are we going to see cases of asymptomatic transmission?" "Right now we do not believe there is asymptomatic transmission. If there is, that would change things" "Also, it might change things too if we see cases in people who do not have direct connection with that cruise ship. For example, if there are passengers on board the flights or who are not on the cruise ships, or family members, if they start testing positive" "That requires careful monitoring"

@solfleece @Polymarket Okay but argue the point that sarscov2 was novel so they didn’t know shit about how the virus behaves versus an an endemic virus that has been studied for decades and shown almost no genetic shift since the 90’s…

@FillingTea @Polymarket Come back to this post in 2-6 weeks

JUST IN: A dozen employees at a Dutch hospital may have been exposed to hantavirus, after not following PPE regulations.

@SylvySilvers @OutFrontCNN @j_g_allen Spreading across the globe ?? You mean amongst the quarantined people who were all on the same ship ?

@FillingTea @OutFrontCNN @j_g_allen Only the human-to-humans version matters It was recently contained within a small village of 2800 people in 2018 The 2026 version is spreading across the globe as we speak

Harvard Professor @j_g_allen says past hantavirus outbreaks did not require “prolonged close contact”: “One person passed it to another person at a birthday party simply by passing by and saying hello.”

@KittyConspires @RedEaglePatriot The same one as you…anyways , the Andes variant isn’t endemic to the US.

@FillingTea @RedEaglePatriot What hospital are you a doctor at?

This is gonna be another Ebola as opposed to another COVID—God willing

@Katy_Faust (1) you don’t have be gay married to use surrogacy (2) surrogacy isn’t abusive it literally brings life into the world (3) stay mad ig — you can’t do shit about it

@RoundLike @Ayjchan But it was a novel virus we knew nothing about

@Ayjchan I remember when Covid wasn’t airborne, wasn’t highly transmissible. Hear we go again…….

From the 2018 Andes strain hantavirus outbreak: One patient did not have physical contact and simply said "hello" to the infected person as they crossed paths at a birthday party. 2 patients sat at different tables separated by 1-2m from the infected person.

@HealthyMama83 @Ayjchan And keep in mind in the study it was 3 symptomatic individuals sitting next to each other for a 90 minute party. We don’t know if hugging kissing or dancing was involved or shared food / utensils etc. a lot of context not included in her post

Did you read what you actually posted? Cuz unless I'm understanding your post wrong you're kind of saying that these people had no physical contact but they were in close quarters and dining together. And then the other people were in a very tiny single home hospital that was definitely a factor in why it continued to spread.

@solfleece @Polymarket Keep in mind SarsCOV2 was novel. The Andes variant of hantavirus isn’t - so they know a lot more about this than they did about COVID

@Polymarket Just a reminder how things went down during Covid. If this is not that contagious. Why are they making such a dramatic media cinema about all this? Every day we will hear stories about newly possible infected people. Lmao, get ready folks

@God_D_Fluent @solfleece @Polymarket It was multiple symptomatic people in a party with close exposure for over 90 minutes. Covid was far more contagious

@solfleece @Polymarket Look up the andes social gathering event in Argentina a few years and see how it spread then.

@Americanist144 @RapidResponse47 @NIHDirector_Jay Fight a virus with a vaccine that didn’t fight the virus but just mitigated symptoms??

@RapidResponse47 @NIHDirector_Jay Jay doesn’t even believe covid was serious, so forgive Americans who know it was and is when we’re concerned with another virus. Perhaps he should stop retweeting anti vaxxers and start fighting viruses with the 1.2 trillion dollars HHS manages annually to do just that.

.@NIHDirector_Jay: "This is not covid, and we don't want to treat it like covid... We want to treat it with the Hantavirus protocols that were successful in containing outbreaks in the past... we shouldn't be panicking when the evidence doesn't warrant it."

@ClareCraigPath @annbauerwriter I mean they also did this during Covid

Spotted in the wild: A public health official trying to reduce fear. I thought they had gone extinct. Quite the breath of fresh air.

@ABridgen @ClareCraigPath I mean it does have a long incubation period. Just keep those on the cruise quarantined for that duration and viola solved

The World Health Organization is promoting the narrative of a very long incubation period of 3 to 6 weeks for Hantavirus. If they attempt to make it the next scamdemic, a long incubation period would give them the perfect excuse to lock people down! 🤔 Please don’t fall for it

@KittyConspires @RedEaglePatriot Not of this variant. Either way the Andes variant had occasional outbreaks in Argentina and is managed

@RedEaglePatriot There’s literally 30 cases of this on average each year in the US

@PresidentHeyoka @GberevaP @Kalshi It actually is. Andes variant outbreaks have happened many times

@GberevaP @Kalshi Fuck off with your cope. This isn't your normal hantavirus.

BREAKING: 20% chance Hantavirus is declared as "public health emergency"
