周日深夜，针对遭汉坦病毒袭击的MV Hondius号邮轮上乘客及船员的遣返撤离行动已接近尾声，已有94人从西班牙加那利群岛乘机返回各自国家。自该船4月从阿根廷出发后，此次疫情已导致3名乘客死亡。卫生官员强调，对公众造成的风险依然处于低水平。
西班牙卫生大臣莫妮卡·加西亚（Monica Garcia）周日宣布，已从特内里费岛的格拉纳迪利亚港（Granadilla）撤离了来自19个国家的94人。身着防护服的乘客登上军用巴士前往机场飞往各自国家，最后一批飞往澳大利亚和荷兰的遣返航班定于周一下午出发。
悬挂荷兰国旗的MV Hondius号在完成加油后，定于当地时间周一晚7点启程前往鹿特丹，船上届时将载有约30名船员。其中包括14名担任甲板和轮机工作的菲律宾籍船员，他们将负责驾驶该船；另有24名船员将下船在荷兰进行为期42天的隔离。
世界卫生组织证实，此次引发疫情的是具备人传人能力的安第斯病毒毒株，并建议进行为期42天的隔离及每日症状检查。包括世卫组织总干事谭德塞（Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus）在内的官员强调，这并非另一场新冠疫情，且全球公共卫生风险处于低水平。
