I am far from an infectious disease expert. However, hantavirus is in Arizona. So I know a little. Hanta doesn't transmit well among humans. So, if you get it, your wife probably won't get it from you. You really have to be exposed to the droppings (especially dried, as they aerosolize very well once dry).
All true, as far as it goes. But that doesn’t explain the current Argentinian variety of Hantavirus, which does transmit person to person, though not with the virulence of COVID or measles.
The incubation period, however, is long, making contact tracing a bit more difficult.
