The Hondius research vessel docked at Tenerife with a French citizen showing Hantavirus symptoms isolated on board, according to La Repubblica. Italy's health ministry stated that Italian passengers showed no symptoms and ruled out pandemic risk.
The ship arrived despite opposition from the Canary Islands' regional president. Hantavirus typically spreads through contact with rodents and is rare in Europe. The isolated passenger was repatriated for treatment while health authorities monitor the situation.
