Update: the French passenger from the MV Hondius outbreak who developed symptoms during the repatriation flight to Paris has now tested positive, and her condition worsened overnight.
Acaban de secuenciar al virus que ha causado el brote de Hanta en el crucero. https://t.co/VZvQfzoMck
Resulta que es prácticamente idéntico al virus que causó la epidemia que duró 4 meses en Argentina en 2018.

#Hantavirus The @WHO update timeline on the MV Hondius #HantavirusAndes cluster: 8 cases total, 6 confirmed Andes virus, 2 probable, and 3 deaths. The vessel will arrive in Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain, in the early morning of 10 May.
🟥 Case 1 – index, probable, fatal
A Dutch adult man with prior travel in Argentina/Chile/Uruguay boarded on 1 Apr, became ill on 6 Apr, and died on board on 11 Apr. No lab tests were done; the WHO considers the infection most likely acquired in Argentina before embarkation. According to the press, he was a famous Dutch #ornithologist (bird scientist).
🟥 Case 2 – confirmed, fatal
A Dutch adult woman and close contact (wife) of Case 1 disembarked at Saint Helena on 24 Apr with GI symptoms, deteriorated during transfer, and died in Johannesburg on 26 Apr. PCR confirmed Andes virus on 4 May.
🟪 Case 3 – confirmed, ICU
A British adult man with symptom onset on 24 Apr was medically evacuated from Ascension to the ICU in Johannesburg on 27 Apr. He was PCR-positive on 2 May and sequenced as Andes virus; remains in intensive care.
🟥 Case 4 – confirmed, fatal
A German adult woman with onset on 28 Apr (fever, malaise, then pneumonia) died on 2 May. Post-mortem testing confirmed the Andes virus.
🟩 Case 5 – confirmed, ship doctor
Adult male ship doctor; onset on 30 Apr with fever, fatigue, myalgia, and mild respiratory symptoms. PCR-positive for Andes virus on 6 May; medically evacuated to the Netherlands and stable in isolation.
🟩 Case 6 – confirmed, trip guide
A British adult male expedition guide; onset on 27 Apr with mild respiratory and GI symptoms. PCR-positive for Andes virus on 6 May; medically evacuated to the Netherlands and stable in isolation.
🟩 Case 7 – confirmed, ICU
A Swiss adult male passenger who disembarked at Saint Helena and returned to Switzerland via South Africa and Qatar on 27–28 Apr. Symptoms began on 1 May; PCR-positive for Andes virus on 5 May; hospitalized in isolation in Zurich. (This case was originally case 8 in the previous WHO DON.)
🟧 Case 8 – probable, hospitalized
A British(?) adult male who disembarked at Tristan da Cunha on 14 Apr. Developed diarrhea on 28 Apr and fever two days later; currently stable in isolation and classified by WHO as a probable case.
⚠️ WHO also notes that one previously suspected patient transferred to Germany (originally Case 7) tested negative by PCR and serology, so that person is no longer counted as a case. (but still monitored until the end of incubation)
⚠️ Contact tracing of passengers who disembarked in St. Helena is ongoing; Cases #2, #7, and #8(?) might have had close contacts on the flight due to commercial flight travel in the potential infectious period, but the WHO addresses that contacts were notified and managed by each country's authority and the WHO.
⚠️ WHO currently assesses the public health risk related to the cruise ship as moderate and, at the global level, as low. The main reason for low public risk is that the Andes virus has demonstrated limited human-to-human transmission in previous outbreaks, typically occurring among close contacts and within household settings, generally requiring prolonged close exposure.
⚠️ Investigations on the travel history and potential exposures of the first case in the Southern Cone subregion of the Americas are ongoing and suggest possible exposure to rodents during bird-watching activities. (The index case was an ornithologist, a bird scientist.) Viral sequencing analyses are also ongoing and will compare the ANDV strain associated with this outbreak with strains circulating in Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay, where the disease is enzootic.
⚠️ Full Genome Sequenced by Swiss Experts and Virus Linked to South American Rodent Reservoir: suggesting a spillover event, likely transmission from the known reservoir system in Argentina and Chile.
