Canadian officials report that one of four Canadians isolating on Vancouver Island after exposure to hantavirus aboard the MV Hondius has a presumptive positive test result, later described as positive. The individual, who is part of a couple returning from the cruise and in their 70s, develops mild symptoms including fever and headache, with the person’s condition described as stable. Public health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry of British Columbia says both the individual and their partner, who also had been isolating, were transferred to hospital in Victoria for assessment and testing after symptoms appeared. Earlier reporting describes the couple as being required to isolate for at least 21 days following the vacation. Multiple outlets also note that the outbreak aboard the cruise ship has led to deaths, with officials referring to three deaths. Canadian authorities say a National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg is involved in confirming test results. The individuals remain under public health monitoring while further confirmation is expected from laboratory testing.
