Any {{current}}-like template to put on this article?

This doesn't seem to meet the criteria for {{current}}, so wondering if there's another one we could add. FantasticWikiUser_{(Ts and Cs)} 19:02, 7 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguate?

Latest comment: 2 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Should this article be a disambiguation page that directs people to the HFRS and HPS articles? "Hantavirus infection" and "hantavirus disease" are terms describing two different diseases with different symptoms, epidemiology, treatment, history, etc. And it seems like any information here would just be duplicated from the other articles.

transmission

Hello,

I removed the statement saying that there were cases of human-to-human transmission on the 2026 ship. Indeed, the reference supposed to support this statement does not say that at all. ~2026-28452-52 (talk) 06:56, 11 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

new graphic for the 'cause' section?

Latest comment: 2 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

the current graphic, 'hantavirus diagram', is credited as "Janicepîtarîsâru-own work" even though it's clear on closer inspection that the image is AI generated. i understand there may not be many widely available infographics as the topic is new, but at the bare minimum, if there aren't any official graphics from health sources like the CDC, I think the image should be designated as AI generated and not 'own work'. ~2026-28963-61 (talk) 15:18, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

I have removed the image and tagged it for review on Wikimedia Commons. Toast1454_T_C 15:36, 13 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
