我们三位作者，国际汉坦病毒学会 (ISH) 的两位前任主席 (HWL 和 AV) 和现任主席 (CSS) 参加了关于 HFRS、HPS 和汉坦病毒的九次国际会议中的大部分会议（表 1）。这些会议为临床医生、基础研究人员、哺乳动物学家、流行病学家和生态学家组成的协同小组提供了一个论坛，分享他们在汉坦病毒研究各个方面的专业知识和兴趣。当 HWL 于 1989 年在韩国首尔组织第一次会议时，现在的汉坦病毒教条大部分只是推测。在此，我们提供了对汉坦病毒研究中关键事件的反思。由于我们来自世界不同地区并拥有各自的历史经历，因此我们对重大事件当然有自己的地心观点。尽管如此，我们一致认为，汉坦病毒的发现已经沿着一条有趣且不可预测的轨迹发展到了今天的地步。由 Elsevier B.V. 出版
We three authors, the two past presidents (HWL and AV) and the current president (CSS) of the International Society for Hantaviruses (ISH) have attended most of the nine International Conferences on HFRS, HPS and Hantaviruses (Table 1). These conferences have provided a forum for a synergistic group of clinicians, basic researchers, mammalogists, epidemiologists and ecologists to share their expertise and interests in all aspects of hantavirus research. Much of what is now hantavirus dogma was only conjecture when HWL organized the first conference in Seoul, Korea in 1989. Herein, we provide our reflections on key events in hantavirus research. As we come from distinct areas of the world and have had individual historical experiences, we certainly have our own geocentric opinions about the key events. Nevertheless, we agree that the discovery of hantaviruses has taken an interesting and unpredictable track to where we are today. Published by Elsevier B.V.
