Rate limits & caching
- Responses are cached publicly for 5 minutes with stale-while-revalidate of 15 minutes.
- No per-key rate limit at this stage. Hammer it lightly and we'll add one before it becomes a problem.
- Endpoints respond with permissive CORS so you can call them directly from a browser app.
Attribution
When you display data sourced from this API, please include a visible attribution link. Suggested wording:
Source: Hantavirus Tracker (https://hantapulse.org)
Data caveats
The risk index is a composite signal, not a clinical case-rate forecast — see methodology for the formula and limitations. For public-health decisions, consult the underlying authoritative sources directly: WHO, CDC, PAHO, ProMED-mail.
If you build something with this API, drop me a line — I'll happily link to it from a future community page. Bug reports and feature requests welcome.
