Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome Public Health Program

Hantavirus was first recognized in June and July of 1993 in the Four Corners area (shared by Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah.

HANTAVIRUS PULMONARY SYNDROME CASES 196 (9/30/98)

FLU-LIKE FEVER FATIGUE MUSCLE ACHES COUGH HEADACHE VOMITING Common Symptoms

About 4-5 days later the lungs fill up with fluid and the patient feels short of breath. They then get extremely ill and almost half will die. Workers who develop symptoms suggestive of HPS within 45 days of the last potential exposure should immediately seek medical attention. Common Symptoms

TRANSMISSION People become infected by inhaling the virus in airborne rodent feces and urine.

ANIMAL RESERVOIRS DEER MOUSE The deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) is a cute animal, with big eyes and big ears. Its head and body are about inches long, and the tail another inches in length. Its upper body ranges from gray to reddish brown, depending on its age. The underbelly is white and the tail has sharply defined white sides.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION DEER MOUSE The deer mouse is found almost everywhere in North America. Usually, the deer mouse likes woodlands, but also turns up in desert areas (area marked green). Some cases occurred in areas where the deer mouse is not found!

ANIMAL RESERVOIRS WHITE-FOOTED MOUSE The white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) is hard to distinguish from the deer mouse. The head and body together are about four inches long. The tail is normally shorter than its body (about inches long). Topside, its fur ranges from pale brown to reddish brown, while its underside and feet are white.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION WHITE FOOTED MOUSE CASES The white-footed mouse is found through southern New England, the Mid-Atlantic and Southern states, the Midwest and into the western states (area marked green). It prefers wooded and brushy areas, although sometimes it will live in more open ground.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION WHITE FOOTED MOUSE CASES One verified human case in New York as of 9/30/98.

ANIMAL RESERVOIRS COTTON RAT The cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus), has a bigger body than the deer mouse— head and body about inches, and another inches for the tail. The hair is longer and coarser, of a grayish brown color, even grayish black.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION COTTON RAT CASES The cotton rat lives in the southeastern United States) (area marked green). It prefers overgrown areas with shrubs and tall grasses.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION COTTON RAT CASES One verified human case in Florida as of 9/30/98

ANIMAL RESERVOIRS RICE RAT CASES The rice rat (Oryzomys palustris) is slightly smaller than the cotton rat, having a head and body inches long, plus a very long, 4- to 7-inch tail. Rice rats have short, soft, grayish brown fur on top, and gray or tawny underbellies. Their feet are whitish.

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION RICE RAT The rice rat likes marshy areas and is semi-aquatic. It is found in the Southeastern United States (Area marked green).

GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION RICE RAT Two verified human cases in eastern Texas and one in western Louisiana as of 9/30/98.
