Sequence data from the recent Andes hantavirus outbreak are now available through NLM’s NCBI resources, NCBI Virus web interface and NCBI Datasets command-line tool. These data were submitted by the University Hospitals of Geneva.
To find sequence records from 2026, search for “Orthohantavirus andesense” in NCBI Virus and apply the “Collection Date” filter. To get a quick overview of Andes hantavirus data available through GenBank, visit the NCBI Virus Outbreak Statistics page (select Andes hantavirus) which shows the collection location and host for recently collected samples.
