Live map auto-synced with the WHO Disease Outbreak News API every 15 minutes. Everything you see is parsed directly from WHO's official article.
What the map tracks:
- Current 8 total cases · 6 lab-confirmed Andes virus · 3 deaths · CFR 38%
- Every location color-coded by its role: confirmed clinical sites, exposure investigation countries, medical evacuation routes, laboratory response points
- Automatically detects what changed between WHO updates (e.g. +1 confirmed case, added Switzerland")
- Filters out unrelated hantavirus subtypes (Hantaan, Seoul, HFRS) that appear in WHO background text
Why Andes virus is different from other hantaviruses:
It's the only hantavirus strain with confirmed human-to-human transmission. Every other strain requires direct rodent contact. A cruise ship closed environment, hundreds of passengers is about as high-contact as it gets.
Built as a situational awareness tool, not to alarm. WHO currently assesses global population risk as LOW.

“Built as a situational awareness tool, not to alarm.”
But it’s called apocalypse clock. It seems like the purpose is definitely to alarm.
Yeah but the WHO will rely on reporting from the CDC in the US. The CDC is severely compromised
We already at the dashboard level? Damn
Just a small(ish) correction, for the marker in Ireland it says:
>On 2 May 2026, WHO received notification from the National IHR Focal Point of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (hereafter referred to as the United Kingdom) regarding a cluster of severe acute respiratory illness, including two deaths and one critically ill passenger, aboard a Dutch-flagged cruise ship.
Ireland is not a part of the UK.
Lol the ‘next update’ thing just resets every time you open the page
