Alle Passagiere sind bis zum 10. Mai in Teneriffa, Kanarische Inseln, von Bord gegangen. Es wurden acht Fälle bestätigt (darunter ein Besatzungsmitglied in Argentinien); 3 sind gestorben. Die WHO hat eine Notfall-Expertentagung zur Mensch-zu-Mensch-Übertragung des Andes-Virus einberufen. Mehr als 16 Länder verfolgen aktiv Kontakte.

Early flu-like phase and the shift to severe disease, with timelines.
Aerosol from rodent excreta is the main route. Person-to-person is rare.
Exclusion, safe cleanup, and the protocol that breaks the chain.
Two faces of hantavirus disease, compared by region, organ, and severity.

Hantaviren sind RNA-Viren, die von Mäusen, Ratten und Wühlmäusen übertragen werden. Menschen werden exponiert, wenn Viruspartikel aus Nagetierurin, -kot oder -speichel in die Luft geraten.
Das Virus verbreitet sich nicht wie Grippe. Eine Mensch-zu-Mensch-Übertragung ist nur für das Andes-Virus in Südamerika dokumentiert. Überall sonst verläuft die Infektionskette von Nagetieren zu Menschen.

WHO and IAATO inspectors are now in transit to Rotterdam ahead of the June 12 final biosafety inspection of MV Hondius. The joint team will assess the newly installed onboard PCR laboratory, two dedicated isolation cabins, rodent exclusion modifications, and crew biosafety certification records. A pass certificate is required before any conditional return-to-service approval can be issued.
ECDC confirms the MV Hondius Andes virus cluster has now reached day 22 without a new confirmed case. The LOW-risk review classification remains unchanged. ECDC states it will issue a formal update only after the June 12 inspection outcome is known. The residual monitored cohort — principally later-exposed crew and cabin contacts — remains fully asymptomatic.
The WHO-IMO joint taskforce confirms the Antarctic expedition vessel biosafety code has entered its final editorial and translation stage following successful legal review. The full draft — covering mandatory PCR capability, isolation cabins, rodent exclusion protocols, and crew health surveillance — is on track for June 20 release. IAATO and national maritime authorities have been notified to prepare formal adoption procedures.
Argentina's 2026 hantavirus season remains at 121 confirmed cases and 38 deaths. PAHO reports no new confirmed case for a third consecutive day. Epidemiologists describe the current pattern as consistent with the post-peak low-transmission phase expected in mid-June, with remaining risk concentrated in highland-adjacent rural areas of Neuquén and Río Negro.
CDC has refreshed its 2026 Southwest hantavirus risk map, upgrading Coconino County (Arizona) and San Juan County (Utah) to elevated risk based on deer mouse population indices above the outbreak threshold. The US 2026 total remains at 24 confirmed cases and 3 deaths. Officials note June 10 marks the statistical midpoint of the June-July high-risk window and urge outdoor workers and campers to follow N95 and rodent-exclusion protocols.
WHO and IAATO inspectors confirm travel and documentation arrangements for the June 12 final biosafety inspection of MV Hondius in Rotterdam. The inspection team will verify PCR lab certification, isolation cabin standards, crew training records, and rodent exclusion documentation. Clearance for a conditional return to service is expected within 48 hours of inspection completion.
