Listeners have been really curious and a bit concerned about the hantavirus.
They want to know what's going on and how worried we all should be.
So Sanjay, can you explain a bit about hantavirus and what is the Andy strain?
OK, we have a question from Emily in New York, and she wants to know if this is likely to turn into a pandemic.
Okay, so Amelia from Woodbridge, Virginia wants to know, what are all the signs and symptoms?
What treatments are available for hantavirus at the moment?
All right, Winta from Tepe, Arizona, wants to know if this hantavirus strain can mutate and become even more contagious.
Okay, our last question is from Rosh.
They're writing from a New York City suburb, and they want to know if they should be stressed about getting the virus after finding a field mouse and its droppings.
They told us that their adult son did sweeping after vacuuming, and then the next day wiped down surfaces sitting near the bottom shelf.
From what Rosh has read, this is all the wrong moves.
They had the mouse in the mouse trap and used a thin plastic bag to discard it.
What do you think?
