Rome, May 15 (LaPresse) – The Ministry of Health has issued a circular with technical and operational guidelines for the management of any cases of Hantavirus, which can be consulted on the ministry’s website. The Ministry reiterated that, at present, “no cases have been recorded in the national territory.” The hypothetical possible onset, however, requires indications of so-called preparedness and coordination. The risk associated with the virus, the Ministry specified, “remains very low in Europe and, therefore, also in Italy.”
