France's health minister stated there is "no evidence" of widespread hantavirus circulation in the country, according to France 24, with officials expressing cautious reassurance though not entirely certain about the situation.
The reassurance follows alerts from Kazakhstan over possible hantavirus spread in Central Asia. The statement aims to manage public concern without declaring the threat completely eliminated.
French authorities are maintaining monitoring protocols. Hantavirus is transmitted primarily through contact with infected rodent droppings and poses serious health risks during outbreaks.
