Three more passengers from the United States who were potentially exposed to hantavirus while on a cruise ship have now been repatriated to their respective home states. This development follows an incident implicating the vessel in a hantavirus exposure event.

Health officials have confirmed the repatriation and exposure reports in early June 2026 and continue to monitor the status of the ship and those affected. Authorities remain vigilant as investigations into the situation on board proceed.
