Spanish Minister Announces Plan for Passengers from Ship Hit by Hantavirus Outbreak

Spain's health minister has unveiled a response plan for passengers from a cruise ship where hantavirus spread among travelers. Nearly 150 passengers will meet with a psychiatrist on Tenerife, one of Spain's Canary Islands, as part of the government's effort to address the outbreak's impact. Hantavirus is a serious viral infection typically transmitted through contact with infected rodents or their droppings, and can cause severe respiratory illness in humans.
