epa03373438 A handout image dated 06 September 2006 and made available 29 August 2012 by DNC Parks & Resorts at Yosemite, Inc., showing tourists viewing the Merced lake and back of Half Dome at the Yosemite National Park, California, USA. Officials at one of America_s most popular national parks warned some 1,700 visitors 28 August 2012 to be on the lookout for symptoms of a rare disease that has killed two vacationers at the Yosemite National Park in California. The so-called hantavirus is a rare, rodent-borne disease that is carried in the urine, saliva and feces of infected deer mice. If the virus is contracted, the symptoms appear one to six weeks after exposure with fever, headache and muscle ache, and progresses rapidly to severe difficulty in breathing and, in some cases, death. Yosemite officials believe that the three confirmed cases and one probable case occurred when the victims stayed at tent cabins in the park_s Curry Village from mid-June onwards. They launched an outreach effort to contact all other visitors to the popular vacation spot. EPA/KENNY KARST / HANDOUT HANDOUT EDITORIAL USE ONLY/NO SALES
