Where does hantavirus come from and how is it transmitted to humans? Head of the Center for Communicable Disease Management of the Ministry of Health: Hantavirus has so far been reported as sporadic cases associated with rodent populations around the world and has not been declared an emergency or pandemic. From 10,000 to more than 100,000 people worldwide are infected with this virus each year, with the highest incidence in the continents of Asia and Europe. The species identified so far has limited transmission between humans, and this transmission is associated with close and prolonged contact.

What would make this resolve YES?
This market will resolve to "Yes" if the World Health Organization explicitly characterizes Hantavirus, Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS), Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), or a Hantavirus-related outbreak as a "pandemic" in an official public communication between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
An explicit characterization includes official WHO statements, reports, press briefings, or publications that clearly describe the outbreak as a "pandemic." A Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) alone will not qualify unless it is also described as a pandemic.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official WHO communications. A consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
