The World Health Organization says there is no sign of a larger hantavirus outbreak linked to the recent cruise ship incident, but officials warn more cases could still emerge due to the virus' long incubation period.
There was a lot of interaction actually with the passengers, and as you know, the incubation period is also 6 to 8 weeks.
So, because of the interaction while they were still in the ship, especially before they started taking some infectious prevention measures, because of the interaction, we would expect more more cases.
