When Jake Rosmarin boarded the MV Hondius, he gleefully posted on social media that the ship would be home for 35 days as he and more than 100 other passengers and crew were to travel across the South Atlantic. Now, the content creator and photographer plans on spending more time than that in quarantine after three people died from the hantavirus and others were sickened while aboard the ship. The 30-year-old Rosmarin is one of 15 ship passengers from the United States under observation in a quarantine unit in Nebraska. Another is in a biocontainment unit. Rosmarin says he has not gotten sick from the hantavirus, but he still plans to spend the full quarantine period at the facility.
