The World Health Organisation has warned that more Hantavirus cases are likely to emerge following a deadly outbreak aboard the expedition cruise ship MV Hondius, as international health agencies continue tracing passengers and monitoring potential exposures across multiple countries.
The outbreak, linked to the rare Andes strain of Hantavirus, has already resulted in three deaths and several confirmed infections among passengers and crew who travelled aboard the Dutch-flagged vessel during a voyage near South America and the Atlantic Ocean.
