Abstract
In Chile and Argentina Oligoryzomys longicaudatus has been identified as the main reservoir for Hantavirus Andes. The aim of this work was to report the presence of Hantavirus Andes in Rattus norvegicus, an urban rodent collected during sampling in San Diego del Cristo, Melipilla, Metropolitan Region. The existence of Hantavirus Andes in Rattus norvegicus could indicate the importance of other rodents as possible viral vectors.
