On Monday, the MV Hondius cruise ship docked at Granadilla, Tenerife, to complete the final evacuation of passengers following a deadly hantavirus outbreak affecting the vessel.

Spanish Health Minister Monica Garcia confirmed 14 Spanish evacuees and others underwent final medical checks before disembarkation, with all passengers reportedly remaining asymptomatic.
Four German passengers were transported to University Hospital Frankfurt for observation, while Italian health authorities monitored individuals from a related flight for symptoms.
