About this episode

The episode discusses the aftermath of a Hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship, including the departure of passengers and health monitoring efforts.

We are just now learning dozens of passengers left the virus stricken cruise ship and returned to their home countries two weeks after the first death from the deadly Hantavirus. We know passengers traveled back to at least 12 different countries, including the U.S. and now authorities are scrambling to trace those passengers movements and monitor their health. All this, as the cruise ship is heading towards the Canary Islands where the remaining quarantined passengers hope to be medically cleared to head back home.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
