American passengers exposed to the rare Andes strain of hantavirus during a recent cruise are being monitored after one passenger tested positive, prompting renewed discussion about transmission risk, incubation periods, and practical guidance for clinicians. U.S. health officials are currently monitoring more than 40 people after possible exposure, though no confirmed U.S. cases have been reported.

In this episode, pediatric infectious disease specialist Dr. Deena Sutter discusses what pediatricians should know about the evolving hantavirus story, including the rare potential for person-to-person spread associated with the Andes strain, current public health concerns, and how to counsel families without creating unnecessary alarm.

The conversation also explores infectious disease issues pediatricians are currently seeing in South Texas, including murine typhus, flea-borne illness, and a recent salmonella uptick in San Antonio.
