摘要: From January to April 2010, 396 hantavirus infections were notified in Germany, a considerable increase compared with previous years (mean: 83 for January-April 2004-2009) including the record-setting year, 2007 (n=232 January-April). Most patients are residents of known Puumala virus endemic areas southern Germany. The recent is probably due an increased population density main animal reservoir, bank vole (Myodes glareolus). .
