Summary
Seventeen Americans were among 150 passengers evacuated from the M-V Hondius cruise ship due to a hantavirus outbreak in Tenerife, Spain. The ship, carrying passengers from over twenty nationalities, underwent strict health checks before boarding government and military flights to their respective countries. The Americans will quarantine at a medical center in Nebraska for up to 42 days, while one Arizona resident is already under local watch. The ship is now heading to Rotterdam for a deep clean. Health experts note that the Andes strain symptoms appear within six weeks, shorter than some hantaviruses that linger up to eight weeks. Authorities are closely monitoring the situation, with no new symptoms reported yet. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
