Frequently asked questions
- What is ANDV Tracker?
- ANDV Tracker is a public awareness site focused on the MV Hondius Andes orthohantavirus (ANDV) outbreak. The homepage highlights official ECDC case status and WHO/ECDC outbreak context; other pages explain transmission, symptoms, and incubation using source-attributed wording.
- Is ANDV Tracker an official public health system?
- No. ANDV Tracker is not a diagnostic tool or an official surveillance system; it is a source-attributed dashboard that links back to official public health sources.
- Where does ANDV Tracker get data?
- Official updates and MV Hondius case counts are stored after an automated daily ingestion pass that reads public WHO and ECDC sources (and related official endpoints used by the project), then written for the app to load on each visit. Curated mainstream media headlines are stored the same way and are separate from official case figures.
- How often does ANDV Tracker refresh ingested values?
- Ingestion is scheduled once per day. Visitors see the latest values available in storage when the page loads, but there is no continuous real-time feed.
- Does curated media coverage replace official case counts?
- No. Mainstream articles are for context only. Confirmed outbreak figures should always be taken from WHO, ECDC, and other public-health authority pages linked in the official updates section.
- Does the site cover all hantavirus disease globally?
- The public experience is centered on the MV Hondius ANDV outbreak and related official updates. Broader hantavirus program data may still be ingested for backend completeness but is not the primary visitor focus.
