Canadians Back Home After Hantavirus Cruise Scare
Description
Two Canadians, who disembarked from a cruise ship amidst a hantavirus outbreak, have returned to Ontario. The World Health Organization reports eight cases, including three deaths, with the Andes virus strain spreading mainly through rodents but capable of limited human-to-human transmission. Canadian public health experts are monitoring the four nationals on the vessel, with no infections reported so far.
