安第斯病毒疫情：美国人在内布拉斯加生物隔离
Read, Watch or Listen
U.S. health authorities have quarantined eighteen American citizens in Nebraska after confirmed exposure to an outbreak of Andes virus, a lethal hantavirus strain, aboard the expedition cruise ship M/V Hondius in the South Atlantic and Antarctic region. The group was medically evacuated to Offutt Air Force Base and transferred under strict biocontainment to the National Quarantine Center and the University of Nebraska Medical Center campus. As of Tuesday evening, one individual has tested positive and is in stable but critical condition in the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit in Omaha. The outbreak has already caused three deaths among international passengers, according to the World Health Organization.
