His parents, a brother, and his girl friend all tested negative. They did some trapping around here and caught a couple of house mice out in the field in back of the house, said Downey. The hantavirus was not found. Neighbors in the block have gar- dens and some have animals, so Downey was not surprised to find out there were two house mice way out in the backyard. But, he said, there were no deer mice. Health officials dont know where Downey could have contacted the hantavirus. They dont know where I got it. His local environment seemed to be free of the hantavirus. Officials were going to do some testing at other places he had been, he understood, he said. He had camped at Burraston Ponds and in Salt Creek Canyon at Pole Canyon and up on the Nebo Loop. They kept asking me if I had seen any deer mice. I havent seen any mice at all except for the couple they trapped. Downey said he hadnt seen any rodent droppings anywhere. T told them I hadn't seen any mice at all.
