NYT article: The Hantavirus Outbreak Is Resurrecting Covid-Era Misinformation Tactics

E4 Reddit (hantavirus search) · 2026-05-13 · United States

Given the surge in interest in this sub and hantavirus, including many commenters worried about their own risk, I thought this article is worth sharing. Gifted link included so no paywall. Would be interested in a virologist’s take on this, and how they see the impact of AI and disinformation campaigns impacting the containment of future outbreaks (of any virus), and how higher risk human behavior like not masking and ignoring PH and scientist/experts could accelerate the evolution of novel or previously unknown strain of highly infectious and/or contagious viruses. submitted by /u/iwannaremainprivate to r/Virology [link] [comments]
