Madrid Isolation Unit For Hantavirus Cruise Ship Passengers
Madrid Isolation Unit For Hantavirus Cruise Ship Passengers

The repatriation of passengers and crew from the hantavirus-affected cruise ship MV Hondius is nearing completion, with up to 150 individuals flying home from Spain's Canary Islands on military and government aircraft.

The World Health Organization has recommended, but not mandated, a 42-day quarantine for those returning, though countries are managing this differently.

Spain has established an isolation unit in Madrid for passengers who test positive or show symptoms, while other nations have implemented varying quarantine measures.
