• Description:
  Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is caused by Hantaan virus (HTNV) or Seoul virus (SEO) in Asia and Puumala virus (PUUV) or Dobrava virus (DOBV) in Europe (1). Each of these hantaviruses is predominantly associated with a single rodent species as its primary natural reservoir: HTNV with the striped field mouse Apodemus agrarius, SEO with Rattus norvegicus, PUUV with the bank vole Clethrionomys glareolus, and DOBV with the yellow-necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis. An additional rodent reservoir of DOBV, A. agrarius, was reported recently.
