Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome in Canada

Review

Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome in Canada

Bryce M Warner et al. Emerg Infect Dis.2020 Dec.

Abstract

Hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) is a severe respiratory disease caused by Sin Nombre virus in North America (SNV). As of January 1, 2020, SNV has caused 143 laboratory-confirmed cases of HCPS in Canada. We review critical aspects of SNV virus epidemiology and the ecology, biology, and genetics of HCPS in Canada.

Keywords: Canada; Sin Nombre virus; hantavirus; hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome; hantavirus pulmonary syndrome hantavirus; viruses.

Figure 1
Geographic distribution of confirmed cases of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in Canada, 1989–2019. The map shows the locations of cases in Canada based on provinces where Sin Nombre virus infection was likely contracted; data were provided on diagnostic requisitions, physician reports, or follow-up investigations. Numbers in circles indicate number of cases for that province. The locations of 15 cases could not be mapped due to insufficient information.

Cases of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HPCS) by province, year, month, and patient age, Canada, 1989–2019. A) HCPS cases per year by province. B) Seasonal incidence of HCPS in Canada as shown by number of cases diagnosed in each month. A clear trend toward spring/summer contraction of disease can be seen. C) HCPS cases by age with associated case-fatality rate. Blue bars indicate the number of cases diagnosed in each age group; red line shows case-fatality rate associated with each age group.
