Hantavirus is a life-threatening disease transmitted by rodents, particularly deer mice. The virus is found in rodent urine and feces, but it does not make the host animal sick. It is believed that humans can become sick if they come in contact with contaminated dust from mice nests or droppings.
Aside from the potential for transmitting plague, Oriental rat fleas can also carry other diseases. Some samples in the latest study were found to carry Bartonella bacteria, which can cause cat scratch disease, trench fever and Carron disease in humans.
