Passengers from the MV Hondius cruise ship, hit by a hantavirus outbreak, return to the UK after evacuation from Tenerife. Twenty British passengers, one German resident, and one Japanese passenger, all tested negative, are isolated at Arrowe Park Hospital. Strict safety measures are in place, with no symptoms shown. Regular services unaffected, and daily welfare checks are conducted. Three British nationals among confirmed or suspected cases worldwide. The ship sails to Rotterdam for disinfection, with crew and a nurse remaining. Everyone under close watch, with Brits facing up to forty-five days of home isolation.
