France has recorded its first hantavirus case aboard a cruise ship and announced strict containment measures, according to France 24. The government said it is adhering to health guidelines strictly to prevent further transmission.
Hantavirus causes severe respiratory illness with high mortality rates. Unlike COVID-19, human-to-human transmission is rare; infection typically occurs through contact with infected rodent droppings. Authorities are investigating the ship's origin and monitoring passengers and crew for symptoms.
