Description
Hantavirus pandemic in 2026? tracks whether the World Health Organization explicitly labels a Hantavirus outbreak as a pandemic in official communication between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Resolution relies on WHO statements or credible reporting confirming a pandemic designation; a PHEIC alone does not qualify. Yes requires a formal pandemic characterization by a credible, official source.

Rules
This market will resolve to "Yes" if the World Health Organization explicitly characterizes Hantavirus, Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS), Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), or a Hantavirus-related outbreak as a "pandemic" in an official public communication between market creation and December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". An explicit characterization includes official WHO statements, reports, press briefings, or publications that clearly describe the outbreak as a "pandemic." A Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) alone will not qualify unless it is also described as a pandemic. The primary resolution source for this market will be official WHO communications. A consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
