Figure Legend:
Transmission of hantaviruses. The virus is horizontally transmitted between rodents through intraspecific aggressive behaviors,
such as biting. The virus is transmitted to humans from aerosolized rodent excreta, particularly urine. Transmission to humans also
can occur from inhalation of secondary aerosols and from rodent bites or other direct contact of infectious material with mucous
membranes or broken skin. Courtesy of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
