Cruise Ship Chaos: Hantavirus Outbreak Sparks Investigation

A luxury cruise ship, the MV Hondius, is facing a wild situation after a hantavirus outbreak left three passengers dead and others feeling under the weather. Health experts are on the case, trying to figure out if the virus spread between people or if it came from pesky rodents. With 150 passengers onboard from all over the world, the WHO is keeping a close watch as the ship sails to the Canary Islands for checks.
