threat of hanta virus

Once again a dangerous virus has hit the world, which is called Hanta virus. This virus is not even giving people a chance to remain alert and it is considered more deadly than Corona virus. Currently research on this virus is going on. Its cases were first reported on a cruise ship in the Atlantic Ocean.

effects of hantavirus

Hanta virus has infected 7 people in a matter of a few days, out of which 3 have died. The investigation is ongoing, and the number of infected people is likely to increase. This virus spreads from animals to humans, and according to doctors, it has passed to humans through rats or squirrels. If the number of cases increases, it can easily enter any house and prove fatal.

Experts warn

Experts say that this virus can quickly become fatal. Initially symptoms such as fever and fatigue will appear, and within a few days difficulty in breathing may occur. Although the virus does not traditionally spread between humans, the new cases have raised concerns. Right now it has not reached people’s homes, but if it spreads rapidly, it will not be difficult. Therefore people should be alert in advance.

Measures to prevent Hanta virus

There is a need to re-adopt old habits. Take care of cleanliness and do not allow rats to enter your homes. People working in fields should take special precautions. Do not use hands directly to clean the feces of rats and squirrels, rather clean with a wet cloth and wash hands thoroughly afterward. Before using any utensil, clean it and use things brought from outside only after washing them. By taking these precautions, this virus can be prevented from entering our homes.
