American passengers who were aboard a cruise ship during a hantavirus outbreak are traveling to Nebraska where health officials will conduct medical evaluations.
The travelers spent several weeks on the M/V Hondius vessel, which became the focal point of the disease outbreak. Following their evacuation, passengers are now making their way back to their respective home countries.
Health authorities in Nebraska will assess the American citizens who were on the ship to monitor for any potential health concerns related to the hantavirus exposure during their time at sea.
The evacuation process has concluded, with passengers disembarking and beginning their journeys home after the extended period aboard the affected cruise vessel.
