17 Americans from hantavirus-hit cruise ship arrive in U.S., including 1 who tested positive, another with symptoms
From the article…
>One American on the repatriation flight began showing symptoms of hantavirus and another "tested mildly PCR positive for the Andes virus," the Department of Health and Human Services
I was just curious, it’s been a while since I’ve don’t PCR but we reported detected, not detected, or invalid. Is mild positive a thing? Is that like being a little pregnant?
