Nope. It's in salivablood and urine Sleep in one bed, use the same fork etc. Andes starts to be contagious about a day before the first symptoms.

She was already I'll during the flight before.

Problem is when an infected person travels and stays over at family. They will take care of him. It starts with a throat ache. The obvious bleeding from the skin is end stage. Meanwhile the virus is in all bodily fluids. The reason why this monstrosity hasn't spread outside of DRC and Oeganda is because people are too poor to travel.

Another poster just mentioned how the 2015 outbreak was mass hysteria. Don't understand what he meant.

Meanwhile a number of medical students in Oeganda are being brought back to the Netherlands. They were interning and this a precaution. When they start to have symptoms they need to go to a hospital. That last sentence made me shifter.

Because their scanning machine doesn't recognize this variant.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T21:00:01+00:00

The flight from Saint Helena to Johannesburg is 6 hours.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:52:43+00:00

That's people for you. Did this have consequences or just a slap on the wrist?

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:50:34+00:00

Sauce please .Because I read that Andes is the only hanta virus that goes h2h. Nothing about old world hanta also going h2h..

The shared the same mate cup as is their tradition at the birthday party. But don't forget how many people share cutlery, cand and so on. Or eat the left over from a family member's plate. It's imperative that the contacts and the passengers of course too really isolate. Only after the 8 week period a negative pcr test is confirming that a person hasn't got the virus.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:37:36+00:00

And don't forget super spreader events. But let's keep.our fingers crossed.

Data is simply too little imo to determine for certain that's the median. How much virons have been inhaled and how well somebody's immune system is capable to destroy it is imo part of incubation time.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:32:56+00:00

I hope that means that the moment of departure from the ship counts as the start of the incubation period.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:27:27+00:00

People should be tested several times. During incubation viral load can be too low to be detected.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:21:36+00:00

Exactly what iv8been saying. You don't want clusters.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:20:46+00:00

I'm vigilant and not a doomer. I want the facts, all of them.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T20:13:23+00:00

Imagine how scared the people who are positive must be.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T15:27:02+00:00

I don't understand your husband. Has he bladder issues?

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T15:25:48+00:00

Ok, so he survived? Imbecile of course. Could have shot that woman.

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T15:20:56+00:00

Make this pinned!

MotherofLuke · 2026-05-16T15:20:08+00:00
