Danger from hantavirus? French Health Minister: We still don't know if it has mutated or not

French Health Minister Stephanie Rist has reacted to the hantavirus situation that has become a concern recently.

Hantavirus first broke out on the MV Hondius cruise ship. Minister Rist said it is not necessary to speculate whether the virus may have mutated, but stressed that there is still much that is unknown about this situation.

"There are things... that we don't know about this virus. We don't yet have the full sequence of the virus, which would allow us to say with certainty today if we are fairly certain so far... that the virus has not mutated yet," she said.

The World Health Organization has said there is no indication that anything unusual is happening with the strain of hantavirus on the ship beyond its location.
