👉 Orthohantavirus is a virus that causes a rare, severe respiratory illness called bronchitis. It primarily affects children and young adults but can also be transmitted to older people or those with weakened immune systems. Symptoms include coughing, chest pain, fever, and difficulty breathing. The exact cause of this infection remains unknown, but it is thought to be caused by the virus, which can be spread through close contact with infected surfaces or by inhaling contaminated air.
