1. What is this again?

2. What is this?;; I guess it's not a completely new virus like COVID-19 after all. But if people are getting infected in enclosed spaces, does that mean it spreads through the air? Hmm...

3. People say that you d** right away once you catch it

4. They say the fatality rate is so high that it's over the moment you catch it, you don't even have a chance to do anything

5. The fatality rate is so high that it doesn't even spread...

6. Is there a cure for this?

7. We still don't know who's responsible, do we? That's scary...

8. Wow, being trapped on a cruise ship with a virus going around, the people on board must be absolutely terrified

9. That's freaking scary.

But I looked it up, and apparently a Korean scientist discovered it, it's called the Hantavirus, and they say it's a virus that's been around throughout human history... Today, a foreign colleague said it was a virus from Korea, so I got really annoyed and set the record straight..

10. There is a vaccine called Hantavax for the hantavirus found in Korea
