[Gpdd] [HEALTH] Hantavirus

[Lori H.]

Hi All,

My hubby likes to bring up this subject whenever he sees an online story about this subject.

We currently have 13 guinea pigs.  He is worried that one of them will get this "Hantavirus" and then it give it to one of our kids.  I've told him that this virus is problem in the southwest, not in the midwest (Iowa). 

Will somebody please set him (or us) straight on this.  If a vet could respond to this subject that would be great.

Thanks,

Lori
