I arrived in #Spain, where I will join senior government officials in a mission to Tenerife to oversee safe disembarkation of the passengers, crew members and health experts from MV Hondius cruise ship.
Meanwhile, I am in direct communication with captain Jan Dobrogowski and @WHO colleague on board Dr Freddy Banza-Mutoka, who told me that, at this stage, there are no additional people on board showing symptoms of #hantavirus.
WHO continues to actively monitor the situation, coordinate support and next steps and will keep Member States and the public updated accordingly.
So far, the risk for the population of Canary Islands and globally remains low.
