I did the best I could with the translator here - the original ProMED Port posting is in a mix of Spanish and Portuguese, as that source typically is. The moderator's comment is especially mangled, but I believe he is saying that hantavirus is endemic in Chile, and that person-to-person transmission is rare, if impossible.

2 deaths confirmed Hantavirus in the Bio Bio Region
The child was identified as Manuel Andres Correa Salazar, who was the
children ride home where he lived. The idea was to spend almost a month in the
Polcura rural site in the province of Bio Bio.
Upon his return, he began to have symptoms such as fever and severe
stomach pains, so his family took him to the clinic
Lomas Coloradas.
They came in 3 times to the exhibition last weekend, until the
Monday urgency worsened being derived from the regional hospital ICU.
"Diagnosed by Dr. Natalia Orellana, she considered it a
tonsillitis, but on Monday he returned with different symptoms and was sent
hospital immediately, "said Dr. Eleanor Guzman.
On Tuesday night the couple died from fulminant pneumonia. All
appeared that the boy had the hantavirus.
"They did not do anything to my son, now if I would sue that doctor,
I demanded, "said the boy's mother.
The Health SEREMI Bio Bio suspicions confirmed this afternoon and also
reported another case with fatal consequences.: A woman of 49 years,
native of Los Angeles, who was infected in the commune of mulch. (Note: I don't think this location is correct - Bad translator!!!)
These 2 deaths from Hanta add to the forest worker who also
died from the virus a few weeks ago, while developing tasks
in the commune of Santa Barbara.
Comment:
[Hantavirus infection is endemic not Chile. A zoonosis wild times and
time, not very clear reasons (climate, quite possibly) is
check an increase of the number of human cases. Despite some evidence
Lube oil is not of inter-human transmission, seems not to be this
important perhaps hardly possible - LJS]
