A French woman evacuated from the MV Hondius ship with no initial symptoms is now in ‘serious condition’ with hantavirus, according to the French government, after her health rapidly declined in the hospital.
The woman was among five French passengers repatriated to France on Sunday from Tenerife.
French health minister, Stéphanie Rist said the woman had started to feel very unwell on Sunday night during the flight and ‘tests came back positive’, adding that ‘unfortunately, her symptoms worsened overnight.’
Meanwhile, some passengers on their way to repatriation flights were pictured with their masks off or lowered below their mouth while on the bus.
