  • Title: Nephropathia epidemica with a 6-week incubation period after occupational exposure to Puumala hantavirus.
    Author: Kramski M, Achazi K, Klempa B, Krüger DH.
    Journal: J Clin Virol; 2009 Jan; 44(1):99-101. PubMed ID: 19058998.
    Abstract:
    Serological and molecular evidence showed that a German female student became infected by Puumala hantavirus during mice trapping efforts in Finland. The incubation period before exhibiting clinical signs of nephropathia epidemica was as long as 6 weeks. Phylogenetic analysis of PUUV nucleic acid sequences amplified from the patient demonstrate that she was infected by the PUUV strain circulating at the place of her occupational exposure in Finland.
