A Yukon man who contracted hantavirus on a cruise from Argentina to Antarctica has recovered and been let out of hospital, according to B.C. health authorities.
Health officials said three other Canadians who had also been quarantining due to possible exposure to hantavirus aboard the cruise remain symptom free after completing their 42-day quarantine period, which is the longest-known period for the virus to incubate.
