Last update: 5 hours agoHantavirus response ramps up: Spain has allowed the MV Hondius to dock in the Canary Islands on humanitarian grounds, after WHO asked for help as the ship sits off Cape Verde with 147 people aboard; Evacuations continue: Cape Verde teams boarded the vessel and patients are being airlifted, including two crew members (a British and a Dutch national) to the Netherlands, while a British passenger evacuated earlier remains in intensive care in Johannesburg; Falklands angle: the outbreak has already touched the South Atlantic route that included the Falkland Islands, but local health messaging in the past week has stressed the risk to the Falklands remains very low; Local life, not panic: a separate report says fears of food shortages in the Falklands were overblown—cafes, hotels and homes are operating normally despite earlier supply delays tied to the Unispirit’s extended maintenance.
