Cruise ship passengers leave Canary Islands after hantavirus outbreak kills three

Up to 150 passengers from the hantavirus-hit cruise ship MV Hondius began returning home from Spain's Canary Islands on Monday after an outbreak killed three people. The World Health Organization recommended a 42-day quarantine due to the virus's long incubation period, though experts say it unlikely becomes a pandemic like Covid-19. New world hantaviruses carry a 40% fatality.
