Whenever I hear about Hantavirus, it's always in connection with cruises, and I finally decided to actually look it up and... It's rats/mice. It's only spread from rats/mice (feces, urine, bites, scratches) and it does not spread human-to-human. This feels like a buried lede. Sure, you can't go around claiming a rat infestation with proof but the headline should not be "Suspected hantavirus outbreak" it should be "Suspected rat plague on ship".
