Doctors compare hantavirus vs. covid global outbreak response

From CNN.

Eighteen passengers from the cruise ship at the center of the hantavirus outbreak are back in the US and being monitored at medical units. Sixteen of those people, including at least one who tested positive, are in Nebraska, and two others have been transferred to Emory University in Atlanta.

All of the 16 people in Nebraska are asymptomatic, and one of the people in Atlanta is experiencing symptoms, health officials said, while stressing the virus does not spread easily. Hantavirus remains a low risk to the general public, the global health agency said. This is “not another Covid-19,” its chief said.
