CDC update on hantavirus outbreak linked to MV Hondius

CDC May-8 release: 'transportation to the National Quarantine Center at the University of Nebraska, Omaha' for 'exposure risk assessment for each American passenger and provide recommendations for the level of monitoring required'. Per ABC News reporting (May 10): 'A CDC official said Saturday that the federal government doesn''t plan to have the repatriated American cruise ship passengers quarantine upon arrival in the U.S.' Framing reconciliation: the facility is named "Quarantine Center" but CDC describes its role as case-by-case monitoring, not blanket quarantine.
