That dusty cabin you're opening this weekend could be hiding a deadly virus

Spring cleaning at cabins can be dangerous. Hantavirus, carried by mice, spreads through droppings and urine. Inhaling dust from these can cause severe illness. Sweeping or vacuuming can aerosolize the virus. Proper ventilation and wet cleaning with disinfectant are crucial. Wear an N95 mask and gloves for heavy contamination. Seek immediate medical attention for flu-like symptoms with breathing difficulties.
