A cruise ship has reported three passenger deaths and two crew members requiring urgent medical attention. A British passenger is critically ill in Johannesburg. Cape Verde health authorities have denied the ship docking due to suspected hantavirus cases, ensuring safety measures are in place. Local health officials assessed the ship's conditions, and the operator is coordinating with them for medical care and screening. The vessel, MV Hondius, is currently off Cape Verde after departing from Ushuaia, Argentina, three weeks ago.
