Cruise ship has Hanta virus

173

The cruise ship Hondius arrives at Tenerife. The Hanta virus is on the ship. The virus is very dangerous for humans. 3 people are dead so far. A woman from Germany is dead too.

The evacuation starts on Sunday in the port Granadilla. Experts bring the people to land with boats. Then buses drive the passengers to the airport. People wear protective suits and masks. They can only take little luggage.

14 people from Spain leave the ship first. German tourists fly home now. All passengers must stay in quarantine at home. That means: You have no contact with other people for 45 days.

There is a special mission in the south Atlantic. A man on the island Tristan da Cunha is sick. The man shows signs of the disease. Soldiers land with parachutes on the island. They bring medicine to the sick man.

Doctors check all people on the ship. Nobody shows new signs of the disease now. The WHO says: The danger for others is small. The ship sails to the Netherlands for cleaning soon.
