Feb 28, 2023 · Finally, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) settled on the name “Sin Nombre virus (SNV)”. The new disease (later traced back to at least 1959 [ 37 ]) was termed “hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS)” [ 7 ], and this name is still in use today (ICD-11 hantavirus disease subcode 1D62.0 [ 30 ]).
In the US and Canada, the Sin Nombre hantavirus is responsible for the majority of cases of hantavirus infection. The host of the Sin Nombre virus is the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), present throughout the western and central US and Canada. Several other hantaviruses are capable of causing hantavirus infection in the US.
