The m/v Hondius docks at the port of Rotterdam.

On May 18, the cruise ship m/v Hondius arrived at Rotterdam's port, prompting collaborative efforts from local health services and authorities to ensure a safe handling of the situation due to recent hantavirus infections onboard. As a designated quarantine port, Rotterdam is equipped with the necessary facilities and expertise, posing no immediate risk to the public. A quarantine area with 23 units has been established for the crew, who will be tested and monitored. While some crew members may remain until June 18, privacy and compliance with health measures are emphasized during this operation.
