A more than 40-day observation period is underway for 18 Americans who were aboard the MV Hondius cruise ship, connected to several deadly cases of the Andes strain of the hantavirus. Most of those Americans, including one who tested positive for the virus, are at a quarantine center in Nebraska. Public health officials are continuing to remind the public that this is not the beginning of another pandemic: “It didn't make sense to have a, sort of, five-alarm fire bell." #hantavirus
