Terms
Terms of Use
These Terms of Use describe the conditions for using Hantavirus Maps. By using the site, you agree to these terms.
Key Points
The site is for educational and informational use only.
It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment advice, emergency guidance, or a case reporting system.
Questions about these terms can be sent to support@hantavirusmaps.org.
Educational use only
Hantavirus Maps summarizes source-linked public health information, selected official alerts, and reservoir ecology. It is intended to help readers understand available public sources and their limitations.
The site does not provide clinical judgment, public health determinations, emergency response, occupational safety approval, pest-control services, or legal advice.
Medical and emergency disclaimer
Do not use this website to diagnose symptoms, decide whether you have hantavirus infection, delay medical care, or determine whether a specific home, workplace, cabin, campsite, or county is safe.
If you are ill after rodent exposure, have difficulty breathing, or believe you may have an emergency, contact healthcare professionals, emergency services, or local public health authorities.
Data and map limitations
Map markers and pages are reviewed snapshots, not live surveillance. Public case geography may be state-level or otherwise limited by official sources.
Reservoir ecology does not prove infected animals, human cases, or exact local risk. Official agencies remain the authoritative source for current investigations and local guidance.
Source links and changes
External source pages may change, move, or become unavailable. Hantavirus Maps may update, correct, remove, or revise content at any time.
If you notice a source issue or correction, email the details to the support contact.
