U.S. context
U.S. context is important because HPS/HCPS can be severe. This page points readers to CDC guidance and surveillance tables rather than inventing a global live total.
CDC pages are the right source for U.S. hantavirus education, clinical overview and notifiable disease surveillance context.
U.S. surveillance context informs education pages. It does not alter MV Hondius counts unless an official source directly links a U.S. case to the event.
Research and national surveillance context
91,388 HFRS cases / 509 deaths, 2014-2023
China is essential background context for a global hantavirus site, but this is long-term HFRS surveillance context, not a live MV Hondius event count.
Annual ECDC epidemiological reporting
1,885 EU/EEA cases reported for 2023
ECDC annual reporting is useful for background burden, seasonality and HFRS context. It should not be mixed into the active cruise-linked case cards.
CDC program pages, weekly and annual tables
CDC surveillance and NNDSS context
U.S. pages should focus on nationally notifiable disease context, CDC public guidance and severe HPS/HCPS awareness rather than a global live total.
