Two people are self-isolating in the UK after returning home from a cruise ship where cases of the rat-borne hantavirus were confirmed.

Health officials say they’re not showing symptoms.

A British man says he’s being tested for the illness after being evacuated to a Dutch hospital, while work is underway to repatriate other stranded UK nationals.

Medical Microbiology professor at Kingston University, Mark Fielder, says they’ll need to be tested first.
