Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. Passengers are being removed from the Dutch cruise ship tied to the hantavirus outbreak after the vessel arrived near the Canary Islands today. Seventeen Americans are preparing to return to the United States for monitoring and evaluation while other passengers head back to their home countries. Spanish Health Minister Monica Garcia says the response effort has involved extensive international coordination.

Twenty-three countries are involved in this operation. I want to thanks all the institutions, the WHO of course. All the passengers remain asymptomatic. The boat has arrived at six thirty AM. The entire operation is proceeding normally.

The World Health Organization says the overall risk to the public remains low and stresses this is not another COVID-19 style pandemic. As passengers disembark from the cruise ship in the Canary Islands, the government in the UK has launched a mission to support one of its citizens on another island who's become ill with a suspected case of hantavirus. NPR's Lauren Frayer reports from London.
