THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AFP) — All 26 passengers who landed in the Netherlands on the first evacuation flight from the hantavirus-hit MV Hondius cruise ship have tested negative for the virus, Dutch authorities said Tuesday.
The flight from Tenerife landed on Sunday night, carrying passengers and crew from the Hondius, which has been at the centre of global concern over the virus after three people died during its voyage.
All 26 underwent “thorough medical screening”, according to the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment.
