Live facts (auto-refreshed every 6 h)
The following figures are pulled from CDC NNDSS, WHO Disease Outbreak News, and national authority bulletins, then composed by our pipeline. Provenance is exposed inline on every row so you can verify before publication.
Embed our live widget
A 320-px-tall iframe that always shows the current MV Hondius status plus the live US count. MIT-licensed code, free to embed — no API key, no account, no rate limit beyond shared CDN caching. The widget self-styles for dark UI; if your CMS uses a light theme, drop it inside a dark wrapper.
<iframe src="https://hantatracker.app/api/embed" width="100%" height="320" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" title="HantaTracker live"></iframe>Need a different size, a focused regional widget (e.g. Argentina-only), or co-branded treatment? Email us — we reply within a working day.
Pre-cleared quotes
Use any of these verbatim with attribution to HantaTracker:
- “The MV Hondius cluster is the first credible signal of human-to-human Andes virus transmission outside the South American endemic zone in over a decade.”
- “Most hantavirus strains do not transmit between humans. Andes virus is the documented exception, and even then only during close prolonged contact.”
- “The single most important prevention step is to never sweep or vacuum dry rodent droppings — wet-clean with a 1:9 bleach-water solution after airing the space for at least 30 minutes.”
