Australians to leave quarantined cruise ship in Tenerife

Four Australians aboard the MV Hondias cruise ship, which has experienced multiple hantavirus infections, are preparing to return home via Perth. The vessel is anchored near Tenerife, where Spanish and French passengers have already disembarked. Local authorities are implementing strict protocols, transporting passengers directly from ship to airport in PPE-protected coaches without community contact, while Tenerife residents initially protested due to infection concerns and potential tourism impacts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
