Hantavirus countdown: U.S. cruise passengers settle in for 42 days of waiting

Most of the American passengers aboard the MV Hondius are now at the Davis Global Center at the University of Nebraska Medical Center campus, which holds the National Quarantine Unit.

The hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship has potentially exposed passengers to a deadly disease. Most returning Americans are now housed in Nebraska. Some may be cleared to quarantine at home.
