Hunter virus outbreak traps Australians abroad

A deadly Hunter virus outbreak originating from a cruise ship has reached 11 reported cases, with Australian passengers stranded in the Netherlands as countries refuse refuelling stops due to infection fears. The virus, transmitted primarily from rodents, has caused over 100 human cases in Argentina this year, with severe symptoms requiring intensive life support treatment in some patients. Infectious disease experts indicate the virus has low mutation potential and limited transmission capability, though its severity warrants strict quarantine and protective measures.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
