Two Ontario residents who disembarked a luxury cruise ship hit by a deadly hantavirus outbreak have returned home and are currently in isolation, the province’s health minister says.
Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand and Health Minister Marjorie Michel confirmed the return of the two Ontario residents who were aboard the MV Hondius and said a third person from Quebec who was on a flight with a symptomatic individual has also been asked to isolate.
