California is now included as a part of a frantic global search to locate passengers who left a cruise ship linked to a deadly outbreak of hantavirus. Three passengers — including a Dutch couple and a German national — died and at least eight others fell ill aboard the MV Hondius after contracting the virus during an expedition run by Netherlands-based Oceanwide Expeditions. Nearly two weeks after the first death onboard, more than two dozen passengers had already disembarked the ship without full contact tracing, according to officials.
