“Spain reported a ​new case among the passengers who ⁠are in quarantine, which brings the ​total number of cases to 13,” WHO ​chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a post on X.

Among them, three died, but there ​have been no new deaths since ​May 2, Ghebreyesus said.

“The situation remains stable. Passengers who ‌got ⁠sick are receiving needed care, while others remain in quarantine,” Ghebreyesus said.

In the last two weeks, all remaining passengers, ​crew members ​and ⁠medical staff disembarked the MV Hondius luxury liner at the ​centre of the outbreak.

Hantaviruses are ​rodent-borne ⁠viruses that can infect people and cause illness.

The WHO estimates there are ⁠10,000 ​to 100,000 human cases ​globally each year, with severity varying by strain.
