Hell On Earth: Dozens Of Hantavirus Cruise Passengers Disembarked Around The World Before Ship Was Quarantined
As I’ve been saying for my entire adult life, all cruise ships must be sailed out into the middle of the ocean and nuked into oblivion. And anyone who still thinks going on a cruise is “fun” or a “good idea” must be committed to a mental institution immediately. Here’s the latest on the hantavirus outbreak that spread on a floating vessel of death after at least one person contracted the virus somewhere in South America while passengers had disembarked, via CNN:
After the first person died on the cruise, here was the captain calmly reassuring passengers that the man had died from…”natural causes”!

While about 140 people are still stranded/quarantined on the barge of death right now, at least 30 passengers disembarked at different locations around the world two weeks ago, meaning they’ve now potentially spread the virus to everyone they’ve come in contact with. Hantavirus has an incubation period of up to eight weeks, and it kills about 35% of people infected. Not as bad as Marburg (90%) or Ebola (90%), but still in the top 10 of most deadly. Hope the cruise was worth it.
