The World Health Organization has said it believes there may have been human-to-human transmission of hantavirus on the Dutch cruise ship where three passengers have died.
The virus is usually spread from rodents, but the WHO said in this instance it could have been spread among “really close contacts” onboard the MV Hondius vessel, before stressing that such transmission was rare and the risk to the public was low.
