After Covid-19, another virus is making news. Should you worry?

A little over six and a half years ago, the world heard about coronavirus, a novel virus called SARS-CoV-2. A 55-year-old man died in Wuhan, in China’s Hubei province. The virus was novel, but it was still very much just a China story.

Till — very soon — it was not. The virus, in just months, managed to bring the whole world down to its knees.
And now, with memories of Covid-19 still fresh in everyone’s mind, there is a global alarm after a deadly hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship.
