A suspected Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome outbreak linked to a cruise ship has reportedly killed three people and sickened several others, raising fresh concerns about the rare but dangerous rodent-borne illness. According to health experts, hantavirus primarily spreads through contact with infected rodents, especially their urine, saliva, or droppings. The virus can become airborne when contaminated dust is disturbed in enclosed spaces. ⚠️ Early symptoms often resemble the flu: • Fever • Chills • Muscle pain • Headache But in severe cases, the infection can rapidly affect the lungs, causing breathing difficulties and fluid buildup. 🌍 The World Health Organization said investigations into the cruise ship outbreak are ongoing, including laboratory testing and virus sequencing. The illness gained wider attention after the death of Betsy Arakawa from hantavirus infection in New Mexico last year. 🩺 Experts say there is currently no specific cure, but early medical treatment can improve survival chances. 👉 Doctors advise avoiding contact with rodents and using protective gear while cleaning rodent-infested areas. #WHO #CruiseShip #HealthNews #genzdigest
