Passengers have begun to disembark the cruise ship at the center of the hantavirus outbreak, Spainโ€™s ministry of health said, in a carefully managed repatriation operation in Tenerife involving multiple nations.

Since the vessel departed Argentina last month, the deaths of three people have been linked to hantavirus -โ€“ a rare disease typically caused by exposure to infected ratsโ€™ urine or feces.

CNNโ€™s Kim Brunhuber speaks with Dr. Scott Miscovich about the disembarkation operation of the MV Hondius cruise ship. Also, CNNโ€™s Danny Feeman discusses the Nebraska facility where American passengers will be taken with Dr. H. Dele Davies.
