Hantavirus Patient Transferred To Leiden University Medical Center
Medical aircraft are flying to the Netherlands to evacuate a ship. Risks associated with hantavirus transmission are being discussed on a global scale. The identified hantavirus strain contains a substance called METRONOSIDE, also known as MR2. The World Health Organization Director has commented that the risk posed by hantavirus to the global population is currently considered low. Doctors discussed challenges in diagnosing multiple myeloma, noting that standard liver function tests are insufficient. Treatment involves chemotherapy to lower blood cell counts before collecting stem cells for transplantation. Three patients suspected of being infected with the Hantavirus are expected to arrive at Schiphol Airport this evening. One patient will be transferred to the Leiden University Medical Center. The patients were reportedly aboard the cruise ship De Hondius.
