हान्टाभाइरस प्रभावित पानीजहाज स्पेन पुग्दै, विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठनद्वारा जोखिम न्यून रहेको स्पष्ट

WHO Downplays Risk as Hantavirus Outbreak Hits MV Hondius Cruise Ship

नेदरल्यान्ड्सको झण्डा बोकेको 'एमभी होन्डियस' नामक पानीजहाजमा हान्टाभाइरसको संक्रमण देखिएपछि विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठनले जनस्वास्थ्यमा यसको जोखिम न्यून रहेको बताएको छ। उक्त पानीजहाजमा रहेका तीन जना यात्रुको मृत्यु भइसकेको छ भने जहाज अहिले स्पेनको क्यानरी टापुतर्फ गइरहेको छ। स्पेनी अधिकारीहरूले टेनेरिफ टापुमा सुरक्षा र स्वास्थ्य सतर्कता बढाउँदै जहाज वरिपरि विशेष क्षेत्र निर्धारण गरेका छन्। विश्व स्वास्थ्य संगठनका प्रमुख टेड्रोस अधानोम घेब्रेयससले यो संक्रमण कोरोना महामारी जस्तो नभएको भन्दै स्थानीय बासिन्दालाई नआत्तिन आग्रह गर्नुभएको छ।

The World Health Organization has stated that the public health risk from a hantavirus outbreak on the cruise ship MV Hondius is minimal. Three passengers have died on the Dutch vessel, which is currently approaching Tenerife in the Canary Islands with over 140 people on board. Spanish authorities have enforced a security exclusion zone around the ship as medical teams prepare for evacuations. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus urged the public not to panic, noting the virus primarily spreads through very close contact.
