The goal of this information collection is to monitor cruise passengers of the M/V Hondius and contacts of either confirmed or probable cases travelers that are identified by jurisdictions and identify potential exposure, risks and new cases. The information will be used to inform CDC state/local health department and interagency decision makers on traveler and contact monitoring, clinical cases management and discharge of persons identified as part of the cruise ship investigation.
The Andes subtype of hantavirus is also the only known hantavirus documented to spread from person-to-person, therefore increasing the risk to passengers and travelers wo may have come in contact with a confirmed case. The true risk of infection is unknown, so close monitoring of close contacts of conformed and probable cases must be done in order to quicky identify any new cases and quickly isolate and provide clinical treatment. To further protect U.S. communities from an imported case of Andes hantavirus, the United States must be prepared to respond domestically by providing state and local health departments and healthcare facilities with the necessary assessments and questionnaires that can assist in identifying high-risk exposures in passengers of the M/V Hondius and high-risk travelers who may have come in contact with a confirmed case. Public harm that will result if routine processing of this request is required. CDC requests authorization to collect information from state and local health departments to mitigate the risk of transmission and spread of Andes hantavirus in the United States. If an emergency approval is not granted, then the transmission of Andes hantavirus cases may go undetected.
