WHO has confirmed that three suspected passengers with inflammation have already been evacuated and are on their way to the Netherlands
The ship's doctor will not finally be transferred to the Canary Islands after improving his state of health. The Director-General of the World Health Organization has stressed that the general risk to public health "remains low".
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), has reported that the three suspected patients of inflammation have been evacuated from the MV Hondius cruise and are heading to the Netherlands for medical care there.
Tedros has indicated on the 'X' social network that the evacuation and transfer has been coordinated by the WHO, the shipping company and the authorities in Cape Verde, the United Kingdom, Spain and the Netherlands.
For the time being, the WHO continues to work with ship operators to closely monitor the health of passengers and crew "in cooperation with countries to assist in proper medical monitoring and evacuation where necessary," the Director-General added.
Tedros has also stressed that monitoring and monitoring have begun for passengers on board and those who have already landed, in cooperation with ship operators and national health authorities, and has stressed that the general risk to public health "remains low".
On the other hand, the Ministry of Health has reported that one of the three passengers, a doctor on board who was originally to be transferred to the Canary Islands, will finally be transferred to the Netherlands after his state of health has improved.
