Five Australians will be forced into strict quarantine when they return home this week after being stranded on a cruise ship off Africa, when a rat-virus killed three passengers.
Right now they are still onboard the MV Hondius, which is anchored in the Canary Islands. Other foreigners are already being evacuated.
The Australians and a New Zealander will be flown into Perth, where they will be forced into isolation for at least three weeks.
