Hantavirus in Ethiopia

Overview

Ethiopia is in the Africa hantavirus context. There is no major endemic hantavirus strain in this curated dataset; the country may still record imported cases.

Tigray virus (TIGV) was first described in 2012 from Ethiopian white-footed mice (Stenocephalemys albipes) trapped peri-domestically in Tigray Province; a 2019 study confirmed circulation in two related Stenocephalemys host species at different elevations in the Simien Mountains. Human disease impact remains under investigation.
