YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

American passengers from the cruise ship at the center of the hantavirus outbreak, including at least one who tested positive, arrived in Nebraska early Monday for evaluation at a highly specialized quarantine unit.

They will eventually continue on to their homes – and weeks of monitoring for symptoms of infection.

The virus, typically associated with rodents, may have passed from human to human aboard the MV Hondius cruise ship, according to the World Health Organization. Since April 11, three people from the ship have died while a handful of others are sick.

CNN medical correspondent Meg Tirrell, former CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden and NAACP Center for Health Equity director Dr. Chris Pernell have more.
