What are the symptoms of Hantavirus disease, and how long after infection do they appear? Symptoms usually appear within two to four weeks of infection, but can appear as early as one week or as late as six weeks after infection. Initial symptoms are general and ï¬u-like: fever (101Â° F and above); headache; abdominal, joint, and lower back pain; sometimes nausea and vomiting.
Hantavirus infection is a viral disease that is spread from rodents to people. The virus can cause severe infections of the lungs (with cough and shortness of breath) or kidneys (with rash, abdominal pain, and sometimes kidney failure). Hantavirus is spread through contact with infected rodents or their droppings. The infection starts with sudden fever, headache, muscle aches, and sometimes abdominal symptoms, which may be followed by a cough and shortness of breath or by a rash and kidney problems.
