The Sin Nombre virus causes the majority of HPS cases in the United States, and Peromyscus maniculatus (the deer mouse) is its predominant reservoir. The virus found in the rodent urine, saliva, and feces becomes aerosolized as mist from urine and saliva or dust from feces.

ICD-10 code J12. 0 for Adenoviral pneumonia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .
When the communicable disease in question is COVID-19, the appropriate ICD-10 code is Z20. 828, “Contact with and (suspected) exposure to other viral communicable diseases.”
Here we leverage the largest publicly available HIPAA-limited dataset about patients with COVID-19 in the US to examine the heterogeneity of adoption and use of U09. 9, the ICD-10-CM code for “Post COVID-19 condition, unspecified.”
Marburg virus disease (MVD) is a rare but severe hemorrhagic fever which affects both people and non-human primates. MVD is caused by the Marburg virus, a genetically unique zoonotic (or, animal-borne) RNA virus of the filovirus family.
One species has been described, Marburg marburgvirus (formerly Lake Victoria marburgvirus), which is represented by two viruses, Ravn virus (RAVV) and Marburg virus (MARV).
Marburg virus disease. Marburg hemorrhagic fever is a severe and highly fatal disease caused by a virus from the same family as the one that causes Ebola hemorrhagic fever. Both diseases are rare, but can cause dramatic outbreaks with high fatality. There is currently no specific treatment or vaccine.
ICD-10 code B34. 0 for Adenovirus infection, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Certain infectious and parasitic diseases .
Adenoviruses are a group of viruses that typically cause respiratory illnesses, such as a common cold, conjunctivitis (an infection in the eye that is sometimes called pink eye), croup, bronchitis, or pneumonia. In children, adenoviruses usually cause infections in the respiratory tract and intestinal tract.

The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM B34.9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Viruses cause familiar infectious diseases such as the common cold, flu and warts. They also cause severe illnesses such as hiv/aids, smallpox and hemorrhagic fevers. viruses are like hijackers.
Sin Nombre virus, the prototypic member of this gorup in the genus Hantavirus, is the causative agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) a disease with a 50% mortality rate. Humans infected with several other hantaviruses exhibit HPS. Deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) are the reservoir of Sin Nombre virus ( Duchin et al., 1994 ). Other hantaviruses of the Americans causing HPS include Black Creek Canal virus, with cotton rats ( Sigmodon hispidus) acting as the reservoir ( Rakov et al., 1997 ); New York 1 virus, with the reservoir existing in white-footed mice (P. leucopus) ( Gavrilovskaya et al., 1999 ); El Moro Canyon virus, with harvest mice ( Reithrodontomys megalotis) acting as the reservoir ( Mantooth et al., 2001 ); and Bayou virus, with rice rats (Oryzomys palustris) acting as the reservoir ( Ksiazek et al., 1997; Torrez-Maartinez et al., 1998 ). Initial symptoms in humans of HPS manifest as a low-grade fever, headache, cough or dyspnea, nausea and vomiting, and myalgia. Clinical laboratory findings of thrombocytopenia and leucocytosis are found in all cases. Persons infected with hantavirus causing HPS exhibit poor pulmonary oxygen diffusion from severe pulmonary edema, often leading to a fatal cyanosis ( Figueriredo et al., 2001 ).
Peromyscus are natural hosts for two hantaviruses found in North America. Sin Nombre virus is a hantavirus endemic in the Peromyscus maniculatus population in western North America ( Childs et al., 1994; Hjelle et al., 1995 ). In humans, Sin Nombre causes hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), resulting in severe acute pulmonary edema and cardiac depression ( Clement, 2003; Lednicky, 2003; Nichol et al., 1993; Schönrich et al., 2008 ). Zoonotic transmission of hantavirus occurs primarily through inhalation of aerosolized excreta ( Hjelle and Glass, 2000; Tsai, 1987 ). In P. maniculatus, the virus localizes to the lung, heart, and brown fat; the animals mount an immune response and become chronically infected ( Botten et al., 2000; Camaioni et al., 2001; Green et al., 1998 ). However, as with most natural hosts of hantaviruses, the animals do not develop clinical disease. Viral replication appears to be low in this species and the infection is not readily transmitted between animals ( Green et al., 1998 ). Epidemiological studies thus far indicate that the virus is not transmitted vertically ( Borucki et al., 2000; Camaioni et al., 2001 ). New York virus is a more recently described hantavirus and has P. leucopus as its natural host. The virus is characteristically similar to Sin Nombre virus and also causes HCPS in humans ( Lyubsky et al., 1996 ). A detailed histological study of P. leucopus naturally infected with New York virus demonstrated some pathologic changes consistent with HCPS in humans, including lymphohistiocytic infiltrates in hepatic portal zones and edematous alveolar septae in the lungs ( Lyubsky et al., 1996 ).
The clinical and hematologic findings of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome are characteristic, but the specific diagnosis is usually made by demonstrating antibodies to the infecting virus or one of its close relatives (typically using IgM capture ELISA). Isolation of the virus from patients is very difficult, but viral nucleic acid is readily detected by RT-PCR. Serological testing is usually performed to evaluate infection in reservoir rodent hosts, because of the biohazard associated with virus isolation.
SNV belongs to the genus Hantavirus within the family Bunyaviridae. The vast majority of viruses within this family are arthropod-borne zoonoses, with the exception of hantaviruses, which are not vector-borne. Hantaviruses are found in wild rodents, which excrete the virus in urine and saliva for months.

In South America, the main representative of the genus is Andes virus, which is responsible for HCPS in Chile and Argentina, and is the only hantavirus for which human-to-human transmission has been documented.
