The deadly hantavirus outbreak aboard a Dutch-operated cruise ship with passengers of 23 nationalities is precisely the type of public health crisis the WHO is designed to tackle. But the U.S. formally left the WHO in January, after 78 years of membership. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

U.S. departure from WHO could hinder hantavirus response
The country left the World Health Organization in January. Because of that, experts say, the U.S. might not get immediate access to surveillance and contact tracing information.
