Overview
Bangladesh is in the Asia hantavirus context. The country has documented circulation of SEOV (Seoul virus).
Seoul virus is plausibly present given globally distributed Rattus norvegicus populations and documented circulation in neighbouring South-Asian and Southeast-Asian rat populations. Bangladesh-specific peer-reviewed surveillance for hantavirus is limited; we do not assert specific endemicity without primary citation.
