- Cruise with hantavirus outbreak heads to Canary Islands after three evacuated

- Description
- Three people were evacuated on May 6 from the cruise ship facing a hantavirus outbreak. The ship, which has been sitting off the coast of Cape Verde but not allowed to dock, is now set to head for Spain’s Canary Islands.
Hantavirus is a rare, rodent-borne illness that usually spreads when people inhale contaminated residue of rodent droppings.
The Argentine government’s leading hypothesis is that a Dutch couple contracted the virus during a bird-watching outing at a garbage dump before boarding, according to two officials. The cruise ship departed Argentina on April 1.
“This is not the next Covid, but it is a serious infectious disease,” said Maria Van Kerkhove, WHO's director for epidemic and pandemic preparedness and prevention. “Most people will never be exposed to this.”

- A humpback whale named Timmy is on a barge headed toward the North Sea after becoming repeatedly stranded near Germany's coast.
Germany's minister for climate protection had given the green light for the latest attempt to save the whale, proposed by a private initiative, despite some warnings from the scientific community that it may be too much for the animal.
The debate about whether to let it die in peace or try to assist its return to the Atlantic Ocean has gone on for weeks.
Some scientists believe the whale had searched especially for shallow waters because it was weak and needed rest. The veterinarians of the private initiative, however, considered the animal fit for transport.
