The American passengers were taken to the University of Nebraska Medical Center, which has a federally funded quarantine facility, while two others were sent to Emory University in Atlanta. The center has previously treated COVID-19 and Ebola patients.

French authorities identified 22 contact cases linked to the outbreak, including eight nationals who flew alongside an infected passenger between St. Helena and Johannesburg on April 24. France issued a decree requiring a 42-day quarantine or isolation period for those exposed.

The WHO recommended 42 days of isolation for MV Hondius passengers and advised daily health monitoring either at home or in a specialized facility. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the risk to the general public was low, stating "this is not another COVID."

There is currently no widely available vaccine or specific antiviral treatment for hantavirus. Moderna has conducted early-stage hantavirus vaccine research in collaboration with the U.S. Army, and a separate antibody — tested in animals but not yet in humans — lost its federal funding in 2024.
