The Venezuela Ministry of Health announced that three people diagnosed with hantavirus have died in the northeastern Anzoátegui state. Additionally, it was reported that two more healthcare workers died in the western Barinas state for reasons not yet definitively determined, but these events are not linked. The Ministry emphasized that both situations are isolated incidents and do not pose a general risk to the public.
It was explained that hantavirus is carried by rodents in rural and agricultural areas and is usually transmitted by inhaling urine, feces, or saliva particles in enclosed spaces. Authorities stated that there is no scientific evidence of human-to-human transmission in the country. These statements came after false health alarm rumors circulating on social media and in the local press regarding the unexplained deaths.
On the other hand, the toll from the 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude twin earthquakes that struck the northern part of the country about a month ago has also been updated. National Assembly President Jorge Rodríguez announced that the number of people who lost their lives in the earthquake has risen to 5,346 with 68 new deaths. According to official data, 16,740 people were injured, 17,907 were left homeless, and the government has started handing over the first permanent houses to the victims.
