📅 发布时间：Updated May 6, 2026, 4:58 PM ET
📝 英文原文：
In 2018, health authorities in southern Argentina were racing, trying to understand what had caused nearly three dozen people in the tiny village of Epuyen to fall gravely ill. By the end of the outbreak, 11 of them had died.Their illness, which caused many to be admitted to intensive care for pneumonia and severe breathing problems, was caused by the Andes virus, a strain of rodent-carried hantavirus capable of being transmitted from person to person. It is the same virus that’s believed to havesickened eight passengerstraveling on the MV Hondius cruise ship, which is sailing to a port in the Canary Islands.Before the Epuyen outbreak, very little was known about the Andes strain, said Dr. Gustavo Palacios, a microbiologist at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York.“There is very limited experience handling this virus,” said Palacios, who was the director of the Center for Genome Sciences at the US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases when he helped piece together how the virus moved from person to person. Thestudy of the outbreakwas published in 2020 in the New England Journal of Medicine.“Probably we are having less than – I don’t know, I’m giving you a number, just for a ballpark number – 300 cases in history,” Palacios said, adding that he is also part of a group of experts advising on the ongoing cruise ship outbreak.Based on their investigation of the Epuyen outbreak, which involved three separate superspreader events – where a single person passed the infection to several others – Palacios said the window for transmission of the Andes virus appears to be short, about a day. People are at their peak of infectiousness on the day they develop a fever.The road that leads to Epuyen, Argentina, shown in January 2019.Gustavo Zaninelli/APA man wearing a mask rides a bicycle on a street in Epuyen, Argentina, in January 2019 amid a hantavirus outbreak.Gustavo Zaninelli/APBut the study also found that the virus could be passed relative
