Three people have died aboard a cruise ship from illness caused by hantavirus. These viruses are transmitted to humans by rodents, so they are zoonoses. They can give rise to two diseases: pulmonary syndrome and hemorrhagic fever. Respiratory disease is rarer, but also more serious since it is fatal in 40% of cases. The WHO reassures that this virus is very rarely transmitted between humans. The epidemic risk is therefore very low.
