The Indian Embassy confirmed that two Indian nationals aboard the Hantavirus-hit cruise ship are safe and under medical observation.
The cruise ship, docked at a foreign port, reported multiple cases of Hantavirus infection among passengers, prompting health authorities to initiate containment measures.
Embassy officials stated that the Indians are not infected and are receiving regular health check-ups, with arrangements being made for their safe return once clearance is granted.
Authorities are coordinating with local health agencies and the cruise operator to ensure the well-being of all passengers and prevent further spread of the virus.
The incident has raised concerns about health safety protocols on international cruises, with calls for stricter monitoring and preventive measures.
