Social media has turned this hantavirus outbreak into a full panic spiral, and most of what’s circulating is flat-out wrong. So let me be one of the doctors in your feed who actually tells you the truth. The WHO says global risk is LOW. The Andes virus does not spread like COVID. There is no ivermectin cure. There is no secret vaccine mandate coming. And that 2022 tweet “predicting” this? A coincidence that people are profiting off of. Hantavirus is serious for the people affected, and I genuinely hope they recover. But right now fear is spreading faster than the virus itself, and that part is 100% preventable. Save this. Send it to whoever needs to see it. 🩺 🗳️ When a new outbreak goes viral, where do you get your information first? #hantavirus #healthmisinformation #doctorsofinstagram #medicalmyths #infectiousdisease
