Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 Dear Larry, They have been saying that it is airborne and you inhale the virus. Good idea to have an air filter, such as HEPA, for your house to remove airborne particles. Best of Health! Dr. Saul Pressman, DCh URL: http://www.plasmafire.com email: saul@...

Guest guest Posted May 31, 2000 Report Share Posted May 31, 2000 - HantaVirus Has anyone as of yet been knowledgable of how people catch/contract this fatal virus? And how do the rodents get it in the first place to excrete the virus in their urine & droppings. Its said that after the droppings & urine have dried up that the virus lives on to be contracted via direct contact or the wind. So how does it enter our system??? ( usa ) 31 states have had cases of it so far!!! Thanks Larry Larry: It is my understanding that the virus is air borne and is inhaled. The last report I heard was that it does not spread through direct contact. I have great faith in my air purification (not filtration) system to control this virus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Great savings and lots more -- beMANY! 1/4114/5/_/507288/_/959698712/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ OxyPLUS is an unmoderated e-ring dealing with oxidative therapies, and other alternative self- help subjects.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2000 Report Share Posted December 28, 2000 Dear Larry, One theory suggest the pleomorphism of the Hanta virus... read " The Cancer Microbe " (look it at amazon.com) and you will understand how a virus can be a fungi, a bacteria and a parasite. M.D. HantaVirus Has anyone as of yet been knowledgable of how people catch/contract this fatal virus? And how do the rodents get it in the first place to excrete the virus in their urine & droppings. Its said that after the droppings & urine have dried up that the virus lives on to be contracted via direct contact or the wind. So how does it enter our system???

From ProMED-mail <promed@...> Source New Scientist (edited) 12-23-00 New Theory on 16th Century Mexican Epidemics Stahle, a geologist at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, has claimed that 2 of the most devastating epidemics to hit the native population of colonial Mexico, contrary to the conventional view, were not imported by Europeans. Rather they were caused by an indigenous virus and magnified by a mega-drought and the stress of colonization. Hantavirus-like hemorrhagic fever [epidemics] spread across the Yucatan peninsula in 1545 and again in 1576, killing 17 million people, including 80 percent of the native Indians, the same proportion of the population that died in Europe during the Black Death. " It shows that natural hazards like drought can interact with social conditions to amplify an epidemic, " said Stahle at a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco. The traditional view is that native peoples in the Americas succumbed to European diseases to which they had no natural resistance. Although the 1520 epidemic that killed 8 million is still thought to have been smallpox, a European disease, the [1545 and 1576 epidemics] now appear to have been caused by a rat-borne hemorrhagic fever called Cocolitzli. Medical journals have already published 2 articles this year arguing that the symptoms recorded at the time most strongly resemble those of an aggressive hantavirus infection. They include blood gushing from every orifice, black tongue and green urine. Hantaviruses can by carried by rats. Stahle noticed that in both epidemics the disease was completely absent from the arid coastal lowlands where rats do not live. He then plotted the amount of precipitation in the epidemic regions based on a 2000-year tree ring database covering all of North and South America. He found both Cocolitzli epidemics occurred at the peak of a wet period preceded by severe droughts. During the drought, Stahle argues, rats would have stayed near limited sources of water, thus forming a concentrated reservoir of virus. When the rains returned, the rats spread around the countryside to forage and took the virus with them. The population would certainly have been more resistant if these droughts hadn't coincided with the period of conquest and colonisation by the Spanish. This left the native people hungry and poorly clothed. The Cocolitzli virus has never been found, but Stahle says of virus hunters from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the field searching for a candidate virus in rats of the region: " I would bet they find it in the next 5 years. " [Filed by Knight] -- [if the word " rats " is replaced by the word " rodents " throughout the text, the hypothesis advanced by Stahle has some interest. Hantaviruses occur worldwide and hundreds of thousands of cases of " Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome " (HFRS) are recorded annually in China, Korea and Russia. Death rates range from less than 0.1 percent for Puumala virus to up to 10 per cent for Hantaan virus. However, mortalities of greater than 40 percent are recorded in the clinically distinct " Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome " (HPS) recently recognized in North and South America. At least 174 of the approximately 250 cases recorded in the USA and Canada have been associated with infection by a single virus, Sin Nombre virus. Consequently outbreaks of hantavirus infection could have attained the fatality rates observed in 16th-Century Mexico. A difficulty of the hypothesis is that it draws inferences from the potential population dynamics of a presumed vector. Rodents can be vectors of many pathogenic agents; it was the bacillus _Pasteurella pestis_ in the case of the Black Death of medieval Europe. Isolation of novel hantaviruses in Mexico will not support the hypothesis; nothing short of a catastrophic hantavirus-associated outbreak would be sufficient. - Mod.CP] ~~~~~~~~~ Visit ProMED-mail's web site at <http://www.promedmail.org> Send commands to subscribe/unsubscribe, get archives, help, etc. to: majordomo@.... ..

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Isn't the HantaVirus in dust and isn't it from rodent fecal matter? I assumed you breathed it in from the dust....out in the desert or whatever. That's what I have heard in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Hi Larry, The hanta virus mainly enters the body through the respiratory tract. Living out here in the country, we've been warned to wear a face mask (whenever moving piles of old hay or rubbish possibly containing mice dropppings) to prevent breathing in dust particles. Hope that's helpful. > Interesting reading, but there's been no mettion of how the Hanta Virus > inters the bodies of it's victoms.
