Hantavirus in Iran

Overview

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

Iran sits within the Apodemus / Myodes range that hosts Eurasian hantaviruses (Puumala, Dobrava). Country-specific human surveillance is limited; we list the known reservoirs but do not assert specific endemicity without primary citation.
