Getting Started — Hantavirus

Welcome to Hantavirus.app

Hantavirus.app is a free, public health surveillance tool that aggregates hantavirus outbreak data from official sources worldwide. This guide will walk you through the key features.

The dashboard

The homepage dashboard shows:

• Breaking banner: Active outbreak alert with the most recent update time
• KPI cards: Total cases, deaths, active outbreaks, and case fatality ratio — each with a source citation
• Outbreak map: Interactive map showing affected regions worldwide
• News feed: Curated updates from WHO, CDC, PAHO, and ProMED
• Timeline: Chronological events for the primary outbreak

How data is sourced

Every number on the dashboard carries a source attribution — hover or tap any KPI card to see the source URL, organisation name, and when it was last verified. We do not generate primary data; we aggregate official reports. See data sources for full details.
