Another four French passengers have so far tested negative, and authorities have identified 22 contact cases. What is key is to act at the start and break the virus transmission chains, Rist told France Inter radio, pointing to the decree that came out today that will allow us to strengthen isolation measures for contact cases and to protect the population."
"The US Department of Health and Human Services said on Sunday that an American on a repatriation flight had tested mildly positive for the virus and another had mild symptoms. Both were travelling in the plane's biocontainment units out of an abundance of caution and all 17 MV Hondius passengers on board would undergo clinical assessment upon arrival in the US."
"The two new cases bring the total number of confirmed cases to 10. The World Health Organization (WHO) has so far confirmed two deaths and one probable death, and as of Friday, four people were hospitalised with one in intensive care in South Africa. The MV Hondius was anchored near the Canary Island of Tenerife after being stranded for weeks following an outbreak of the hantavirus on the luxury cruise ship."
