Here in the American Southwest the main carrier is the deer mouse and dust containing the virus can be inhaled during cleaning. The mortality rate is 30 to 40 percent even with advanced treatment in US hospitals. Last fall I was suspected of having it with symptoms maybe from mice in my mountain garage. I didn’t but testing showed HV antibodies indicating past exposure.

“testing showed HV antibodies indicating past exposure.”

wow, you’re double-lucky:

1. you didn’t die

2. you should have some level of future immunity
