Clavijo, who doesn't want the hantirus infectious cruise to stop in the Canary Islands, has called for an urgent meeting with Sanchez

Fernando Clavijo has refused to allow the hantvirus infected cruise to stop in the Canary Islands and has called for an "urgent meeting" with the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, who has said that he has not been given sufficient technical criteria or clear information on his state of health.

The Canary Authority has attacked the Spanish Government, which it has therefore described as a lack of institutional loyalty, and has stated that it has not received any explanation asto the change of protocol in the management of the vessel, and has therefore requested that the reports justifying the decision be known, and has warned that the information available does not reassure the Canaries.

The World Health Organisation and the European Union have supported the decision to provide health care to cruise passengers and the working group in the Canary Islands through an international protocol. However, Clavijo maintains that the initial plan was to transport the infected from Cape Verde to the Netherlands and that the vessel should not reach the Canary Islands waters.

The President of the Autonomous Region has insisted that he does not know the reasons for the change of approach and has questioned the "request for assistance" made by the Netherlands, as reported by the Ministry of Health.

Clavijo warns,in addition to , thatthe Canary Islands authorities are not aware of the scale of the health crisis and points out that the health system has very limited resources for emergency care.

According to available information, there are 149 people of 23 nationalities on board the "Hondius", six identified cases of inflammation, two confirmed by the laboratory, three dead and one patient in critical condition.
