Hantavirus outbreak kills 3 on cruise ship in the Atlantic Ocean, WHO says - NPR

Three people have died and multiple others were sickened in the cruise ship hantavirus outbreak, with passengers remaining under isolation and precautions as investigations proceed. Health officials emphasize that hantavirus is rare but can cause severe respiratory infections, which is why authorities have kept monitoring and quarantine measures in place. The ship operator’s extra cleaning before returning to its home port is part of the containment and disinfection response to the fatalities and confirmed cases.
