| Hantavirus |
Virus carried by rodents that causes bleeding and kidney failure. A variant called Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome was discovered in the American Southwest in the 1990s, and causes a serious lung infection and death in nearly half of those who become infected. People catch the disease by breathing in particles from the rodents' droppings (not from bites).
