Experter har pekat ut den 19 maj och den 21 juni som avgörande datum för att se om hantaviruset från kryssningsfartyget Hondius spridit sig utanför fartyget. Tre personer har dött och flera insjuknat i utbrottet.

Utbrottet började ombord på m/v Hondius som senast lagt till vid Teneriffa. Leo Schilperoord, 70, från Nederländerna har identifierats som patient noll. Hans hustru Miriam Schilperoord, 69, dog senare av viruset.

30 passagerare lämnade fartyget innan smittan blev känd och har sannolikt träffat hundratals andra under de senaste veckorna. Inga fall har ännu bekräftats utanför fartyget.

Amerikanske läkaren Steven Quay uppger att inkubationsperioden gör att eventuell spridning till tredje generationen kan upptäckas runt 19 maj. Om inga nya fall dyker upp då blir nästa kontroll den 21 juni.
