Epidemic-stricken cruise evacuation wraps up; WHO: Global risk currently "low"

2026-05-12 02:35

Odaily Planet Daily News, local time on the 11th, as the last group of Australian passengers evacuated from the Canary Islands, Spain, the multi-day international transfer and evacuation of personnel for the "Hondius" cruise ship's Hantavirus outbreak is nearing its end. The cruise ship was carrying more than 140 passengers and crew from 23 countries, and the Hantavirus outbreak over the past few weeks has caused multiple deaths, drawing international attention. Many countries have launched evacuation operations.

In the early hours of local time on the 10th, the "Hondius" cruise ship entered the waters near the Port of Granadilla on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands. Instead of docking directly at the pier, the much-watched cruise ship anchored hundreds of meters offshore and then began transnational medical transfers and personnel evacuation operations.
