A Utah resident is on board the MV Hondius, a cruise ship that experienced a hantavirus outbreak in the Atlantic.
The ship will soon dock in the Canary Islands before federal officials escort passengers to a quarantine unit (Nebraska), and Utah health officials say there is no increased risk locally.
Residents can join free outdoor mat Pilates sessions hosted by Urban Pilates at The Orchard on University Place every Wednesday from 7:00-8:00 p.m. between Memorial Day and Labor Day (no class on June 10).
