The WHO's director general, Tedros Ghebreyesus, reassured Tenerife residents about the low risk of hantavirus infection from the MV Hondius cruise ship, which is arriving after an outbreak. Six cases have been confirmed among passengers, with precautions in place to prevent local transmission. Ghebreyesus emphasized that this is not another Covid situation, and health checks will be conducted before passengers disembark. Local protests have arisen against the ship's arrival, but Spanish officials are managing the situation with detailed containment measures.
