@Friedemann1 Blöd für ihn ist, dass es nun schon Ebola Fälle in Kinshasa (15 Millionen Einwohner) und Kampala (4 Millionen) gab.

Schreibt Prof Homburg von „Erregern“ weil er mal wieder nicht genau weiß ob Virus oder Bakterium?
Heicapa 👁️@Heicapa1
@ZuckerZucker3 @KarinKaufmann3 Und wieder schreibt Homburg nur Blödsinn. Das größte jemals dokumentierte Ebola-Geschehen (Epidemie 2014–2016) traf mit voller Wucht dicht besiedelte Millionenstädte und Hauptstädte wie Monrovia (Liberia) und Freetown (Sierra Leone).

Un professionnel de santé de l'île de l'Ascension, qui a été en "contact étroit" avec un passager malade et a "développé des symptômes" compatibles avec l'#hantavirus, a été évacué à Londres.
Ce serait le 1er cas hors passagers du navire, mais donc avec "contact étroit".

Dear journalists,
neither Andes virus nor Bundibugyo virus are Hanta- or Ebola-VARIANTS, respectively.
They are virus SPECIES.
Species differ much more from each other than variants do.
Thank you for your attention to this matter

Oha! Was konnte denn im Flugzeug schon Schlimmes passieren, ausser dass einer der damals im Flugzeug (völlig frei sitzend unter den anderen Fluggästen) transportierten kanadischen Schiffpassagiere jetzt mit ANDV Infektion im Krankenhaus liegt ...

#hantavirus [The Portuguese crew that flew the Canadians home from Tenerife are not happy.] ➡️ 🇵🇹🇨🇦 Portuguese air crew transports passenger positive for Hantavirus - Crew complained of “insecurity” on board repatriation flight = News today that the repatriation flight from Tenerife to Canada of passengers from the Hantavirus-stricken cruise-ship was carrying at least one person positive for the potentially deadly virus will have increased the anxiety already voiced by the Portuguese crew that has complained it felt ‘insecure’ carrying out the flight. - According to the DGS (Portugal’s general health directorate): “at the moment, there is no evidence of secondary transmission associated with this flight, nor indication of increased risk for the Portuguese population.” - The words that stand out here being “at the moment”. - ➡️The Canadian citizen in question ➡️ started showing symptoms of the virus four days after the repatriation flight (effected on Sunday, May 10) – by which time the crew that transported him and four other fellow nationals home to Canada will have returned to their daily routines (and very possibly travelled to other countries, as part of their work). = ➡️ The crew, which entered an official complaint over the way they were seconded into the repatriation flight, included nine cabin staff and three pilots. - At the time of the complaint, EuroAtlantic – the airline operating the repatriation flight – stated that the five passengers repatriated from Tenerife “were not infected” and that the aircraft was disinfected after landing in Canada. = ➡️ The airline also said that the protection given to the Portuguese crew: ➡️ surgical masks and gloves, was sufficient – and that “all security measures were complied with”. This particular outbreak of Hantavirus – which turned the cruise of the MV Honduis into a global news story – has already led to the deaths of three people, with eight confirmed cases of infection. The virus can take up to six weeks to incubate before people start showing symptoms, thus the concern that this news story may not be over. By Natasha Donn portugalresident.com/portuguese-air…

“The best outbreak investigation we have contradicts the message we have of close, prolonged contact,” says Joseph Allen, a professor and director of the Healthy Buildings program at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. “It’s not just intimate contact, it’s not just close contact. There is evidence that it spread without those things happening but it was absent from the official messaging for at least a week.”

The rare virus has a high fatality rate and can spread through the air, research shows, though it is easier to contain than Covid-19. on.wsj.com/4nuY5mm

All passengers on this ship should have been given interferon early to overcome the insidious effects of the ANDV hantavirus. Had this been done, the infected individuals' immune systems would have reacted much sooner, as ANDV suppresses cell communication. It is incomprehensible why the doctors were unaware of this.

Venous and arterial thromboembolic events after COVID-19 during the Omicron period in three European countries
🚨OOOOh boys and girls, WE WARNED YOU:
With “Mild” Omicron COVID your blood-clot risk is still highly elevated, even if you’re vaccinated. A new 7.6-million-person study just dropped: clots nearly 4× higher in the first month… and still doubled at 6 months!!
• Large-scale European cohort study (UK CPRD GOLD, Dutch IPCI, Spanish SIDIAP, >7.6 million pre-pandemic controls, ~780 000 Omicron-era COVID-19 cases) mapped to OMOP model.
• Compared incidence of VTE, arterial thromboembolism and other CV events at 30/60/90/180 days post-infection vs 2017–2019 background rates.
• Age-sex standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) for VTE: 3.61× (UK) to 4.10× (Spain) in the first 30 days, remaining 1.88–2.37× at 6 months……even in vaccinated populations,
• Risks remained raised up to 6 months for pulmonary embolism (strongest signal), stroke, and heart failure,
• Highest risks in immunocompromised and infection-naïve individuals. Prior infection and higher vaccine doses blunt (but do not eliminate) the increase,
• Vaccination stratified by doses: individuals with exactly one dose showed numerically lower crude VTE/ATE rates (wide CIs, small subgroup),🤔
• Limitations: observational biases (testing, healthcare access, unmeasured confounders), heterogeneous coding across databases, no direct variant sequencing,
‼️Published yesterday, the pre-print “definitive version” of the three-country Omicron preliminary report from 2025, the data are unambiguous: even in the vaccinated, “milder-wave” era, COVID-19 drove a 3.6- to 4.1-fold surge in life-threatening blood clots during the first 30 days and left risk nearly doubled (1.9-2.4×) at six months. Prior infection and higher vaccine doses blunt, but do not eliminate, the hazard. The virus continues to damage the cardiovascular system long after “mild” symptoms fade and by doing so, SarsCov2 remains a potent cardiovascular hazard!

1) Cuando oigo hablar de que el #Hantavirus del crucero puede causar una pandemia, ME ENTRA LA RISA!
Es absurdo:
- El virus del crucero es casi identico a casos anteriores en Argentina
- Si tuviese potencial de pandemia, hace mucho q hubiera salido de Argentina!

Interessant. Das könnten Patienten Zero gewesen sein, denn der Holländer reiste im März durch diese Gegend.

So there was this localised three-person household cluster in Chubut, Argentina in Mar/early April with suspected Andes-virus person-to-person transmission. The first case was confirmed March 2, and a 15-year-old close contact died around April 6-7 secretariadesalud.chubut.gov.ar/notices/1548

25-jähriger Italiener der im KLM Flug war, wurde mit Hantavirus Symptomen hospitalisiert. Das wäre der erste bestätigte Fall ausserhalb des Schiffes.

Jene Frau, die vor 2 Tagen noch angeblich gesund war als sie das Schiff verlassen hatte, liegt derzeit in kritischem Zustand auf der Intensivstation. Allerdings war sie da nicht gesund. Jene Ärzte, die sie vor dem Verlassen des Schiffes untersucht hatten, sagten ihr, sie rede sich ihre Symptome nur ein weil sie Angst hätte. Es wären nur psychische Symptome. Das kennen wir doch schon alles von Long Covid.

hinaus von Bedeutung. Die Geschichte zeigt, welchen Schaden es anrichtet, wenn das Risiko einer Übertragung über die Luft frühzeitig heruntergespielt und erst korrigiert wird, nachdem es bereits zu vermeidbaren Übertragungen gekommen ist. Die aktuellen Leitlinien der WHO

34 passengers left the MV Hondius on 24 April, at the same time as the infected Dutch woman.
She was already symptomatic when she disembarked & died 2 days later.
They may have shared transport with her, stood in queues at the airport with her…
Why aren’t they being isolated?

HANTAVIRUS OUTBREAK In today’s press briefing, Dr Tedros was asked about the protocol for passengers who left the ship 2.5 weeks ago, at the same time as the infected Dutch woman. With a typical incubation period of 2-6 wks, this is a glaring hole in the containment strategy…

This is dumb—Trump’s CDC now says cruise-ship 🛳️ passengers can leave quarantine/isolation and finish the hantavirus incubation period at home and voluntarily stay home. So, what the hell was the point of flying to Nebraska anyway? RFK Jr’s CDC of course.

Oh for goodness sake.
It doesn't even matter.
With something this dangerous, at this stage of an outbreak, you should simply *assume* that it's highly transmissible, and then dial back later.
My word.
The incompetence here is stratospheric.

It has been assumed that hantavirus is contagious only if someone is in close contact with someone who’s having symptoms. Some experts now suggest it’s possible it may be more contagious than thought. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
