Abstract

We report the detection of batborne hantaviruses in 2 bat species (Aselliscus stoliczkanus and Hipposideros gentilis) in Laos, expanding the known geographic distribution of hantaviruses in Southeast Asia. Given the frequent human–wildlife contact in the region, researchers should continue to characterize the viruses and investigate their zoonotic potential.
