With the recent cruise ship outbreak proving person-to-person hantavirus spread, the longstanding theory that the English sweating sickness from the 14/1500’s was a hantavirus may be more plausible given the fact that it too showed very ‘infectious’ behaviour. I am wondering what people’s thoughts are on if this recent outbreak may have something to contribute to the sweating sickness mystery?
