Overview

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

Sangassou virus (SANGV) was the first hantavirus isolated from Africa, identified in an African wood mouse (Hylomyscus simus) trapped near Sangassou village in the forest region of Guinea. Human seroprevalence in the local population was reported at ~1.2%.
