Hantavirus Outbreak on Cruise Ship Now Over | Amsterdam News
Description
The WHO has declared the hantavirus outbreak on the MV Hondius cruise ship officially over, with no new cases and the last contact person testing clean. Caused by the rare Andes strain — capable of person-to-person transmission unlike most hantaviruses — the outbreak claimed three lives: two Dutch nationals and a German woman. Though the immediate danger has passed, global health teams are still investigating how it started and deepening their understanding of this dangerous virus to prevent future outbreaks.
