Hantavirus updates: Canadian cruise ship passenger tests positive for hantavirus 

A Canadian that was one of the four passengers from the MV Hondius repatriated to the country has tested positive for hantavirus, according to the Public Health Agency of Canada.

The person was previously transported to the hospital Thursday along with their partner, who also was a cruise ship passenger, the agency said in a Saturday statement. Both displayed hantavirus symptoms but the partner has tested negative so far, the agency said in a Sunday update, adding that both people remain hospitalized in isolation.

"There have been no further cases identified at this time. All high-risk contacts are isolating and will continue to be monitored closely by local public health," the statement Sunday further said.

This brings the total number of hantavirus cases connected to the MV Hondius to 11.

Washington health officials Friday night said they were tracking a hantavirus case that is unrelated to the cruise ship outbreak.

The person was infected after exposure to a rodent, the Washington State Department of Health said in a news release. The person was infected with a strain of hantavirus that does not spread person to person, the health department said.

Separately, the department said it is aware of six people that were former cruise ship passengers or exposed to an infected cruise ship passenger on a flight -- part of the 41 people across the country under monitoring for potential infection. None have shown any signs of illness.

The two repatriated cruise ship passengers who were being monitored at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta have now been transferred to the quarantine facility in Nebraska, according to Nebraska Medicine.

Now all of the 18 American ship passengers are under monitoring at the Nebraska quarantine unit.

Officials in Ontario County in upstate New York said they're “investigating a suspected locally acquired hantavirus case” involving a Geneva High School student. Geneva is about 45 miles southeast of Rochester.

The Ontario County Public Health Department stressed that the case is not linked to the cruise ship and “there is no risk to the general public.” Hantavirus strains in the U.S. don’t spread from person-to-person, the health department said, and is only “spread through mouse and rodent droppings, especially when urine, feces, or nesting materials become aerosolized during cleaning."

The Geneva City School District said "there is no evidence of risk to other students or staff."

The school district said it's "continuing to work closely with the Ontario County Department of Health and will continue to follow any guidance provided by public health officials."
