An American on the repatriation flight began showing symptoms of hantavirus and another "tested mildly PCR positive for the Andes virus," the Department of Health and Human Services says.
New York State Health Department Commissioner, James V. McDonald M.D., M.P.H., talks with CBS News New York's Mary Calvi about the latest on Hantavirus and the three residents now in quarantine.
More than 100 people from a cruise ship dealing with an outbreak of the rare and deadly hantavirus are set to be disembarked.
The MV Hondius is currently traveling to the Canary Islands, where the 147 people on board will be methodically off-boarded and flown home.
American passengers who left the MV Hondius cruise ship in April are being monitored for hantavirus in at least five states, health officials said.
Three passengers have been evacuated from a cruise ship hit by a hantavirus outbreak, as related cases are confirmed in Switzerland and South Africa.
A hantavirus outbreak on the MV Hondius cruise ship has killed three people and infected multiple others, officials said.
Passengers aboard the ship are in good spirits but may have to quarantine for "eight weeks," a World Health Organization official told CBS News.
