La Organización Mundial de la Salud está rastreando a los pasajeros del crucero MV Hondius tras un brote de hantavirus de la variante Andes, que se puede transmitir entre personas, aunque el riesgo de pandemia es considerado bajo por expertos debido a su limitada capacidad de contagio y la escasez de brotes comunitarios, lo que resalta la importancia de medidas preventivas para evitar nuevos casos. #Hantavirus #PublicHealth #VirusTransmission
El hantavirus, cuyo brote se encuentra en un crucero de lujo en Canarias, presenta un riesgo de contagio bajo pero preocupante, con una letalidad del 40% y sin vacuna disponible, lo que llama a la precaución en su manejo y contención, según explicó el especialista Oriol Mitjà en la tertulia de 'El tiempo justo' de Telecinco. #Hantavirus #HealthRisk #VirusTransmission
