Hantavirus Scare on Cruise Ship: Passengers to Disembark in Tenerife Amid Global Health Response

The virus is very deadly and infectious and needs to be contained. The passengers of that cruise ship cannot be allowed to integrate back into society and need to be quarantined so we can ensure they will not begin a spread of another virus that could lead to another pandemic.

They should have kept everyone on the boat quarantined until they were all cured or better.

I think people need to start investigating. What is the cure for this virus instead of just kind of letting people wondering whether or not this is going to be the next Covid and I don’t see the president doing anything to help I don’t see the world health organization doing anything to help. I don’t see the CDC doing anything to help like just leaving people running in circles thinking that we’re gonna be locked down again it’s not right.

i dont rlly care. the hantavirus has existed for years and is really hard to get. so we will be fine

We better jump on this right away, or we may have a repeat of COVID.

I think these people should stay on the ship!

I find the lack of information about this deadly disease a bit worrisome, and so, whenever I see headlines about it, I try to figure out whether the articles bring me new information or not.

My political views often clash with my parents views

idk it could be a crazily spread deadly disease

Because no one wants another deadly virus going around that is WORSE than the first one when really all of those people should have stayed on that boat

I believe it’s important to inform the people

This is exactly why we need strong global health systems and quick international coordination—diseases don’t care about borders. Props to WHO and everyone working together on this; it’s the only way to keep everyone safe.

Honestly, this just proves that we need experts and science-based protocols running the show whenever there's a health scare like this—leave the decisions to the people who actually know what they're doing.

There is no cure or treatment for the Hantavirus or how to protect oneself from it.

I kind of feel scared, I feel like if the pandemic happens again I'll be upset.

I won't go through another COVID like lock-down
