I wouldn’t expect any evidence relating hantavirus rates in various groups based on vaccination status because it’s reaaaalllllly early to be even looking at that type of information at this time. Soon though.
As for the Andes strain being uncommon and geographically limited - you’re exactly correct - until you get people from different parts of the world together that unknowingly get exposed and then return home before finding out that they became ill and possibly infected everyone around them.
IF.....
To establish a real connection, u would expect to see:
higher hantavirus rates in vaccinated groups than unvaccinated groups, a plausible biological mechanism, and reproducible epidemiological evidence.
That evidence has not been found.
yes, the Andes virus person-to-person spread tho it is uncommon and geographically limited
