The hantavirus outbreak, which claimed three lives in April, is over, says the Geneva-based World Health Organization.

Seit dem 25. Mai sind laut der UN-Gesundheitsorganisation keine neuen Hanta-Fälle mehr aufgetreten. Am Donnerstag wurde die letzte Kontaktperson negativ getestet.

The World Health Organization said on Thursday that the hantavirus outbreak linked to a cruise ship is over.

First reported on May 2, the outbreak stemmed from cases aboard the MV Hondius cruise ship off the coast of South America.
