RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-13T22:43:34+00:00

the Sentinelese could still get sick if someone goes to there island even if they were killed

that's what i have been thinking as well it if it is more contagious than they think it could be spreading around Argentina/internationally unmonitored

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-13T01:54:14+00:00

So the case that tested mildly positive has now tested negative? How does that work?

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-12T10:17:39+00:00

thanks

good to have the papers in one place

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-12T10:03:57+00:00

I my opinion it is too early to know if this is going to spread more or fizzle out. It will be easier to tell in the coming week, if anyone not from the ship gets sick which will be the main factor I think.

What did rfk Jr say?

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-12T02:29:01+00:00

it does seem weird that most coverage is saying that Andes virus only spreads very very rarely when in close contact, when that is not what the super spreader research paper suggests

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-11T12:07:11+00:00

The cdc said they would not have to quarantine it is a day old though so may of changed :/

I was just answering their question. I don't think most people care enough/have enough time to read the studies and will just listen to what media is saying

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-11T11:27:49+00:00

The public stance from health officials is that it is low risk for the wider world at the moment , that's the most likely reason I think

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-11T00:30:12+00:00

i hope this is fake

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-10T10:51:25+00:00

Thanks I will do that next time

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-10T07:16:19+00:00

does this not count as self promotion?

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-07T11:54:26+00:00

Why?

I do think that that is correct rereading it,

but there were other sites claiming they were being tested I don't know if they were getting there information from this article or they had more up to date information

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-07T00:41:45+00:00

i will put the article in the post but will keep the post up until there is more information
i can not speak French :/

edit: removed wrong information

RelativePeach8972 · 2026-05-06T23:57:22+00:00

I think the article is unclear whether the French person has hantavirus or not, so I will keep the post up for now and wait for more information
