Spain will receive a hantavirus-infected cruise ship in the Canary Islands for medical evaluation and repatriation of passengers.

The hantavirus-hit cruise ship MV Hondius departed Cape Verde for Tenerife on Wednesday, as authorities rush to trace anyone who may have come into contact with the virus.

La OMS confirmó hoy que se planea que el crucero en el que se ha declarado un brote de hantavirus se dirija a las Islas Canarias.
