French MV Hondius passenger PCR-confirmed positive for Andes hantavirus; condition deteriorating
One of the five French nationals repatriated from MV Hondius has tested PCR-positive for Andes hantavirus at Hôpital Bichat-Claude-Bernard in Paris; the patient's condition deteriorated overnight following onset of symptoms during the repatriation flight from Tenerife. French Health Minister Stéphanie Rist emphasised: "What is key is to act at the start and break the virus transmission chains." The French case was already included in HantaCount's headline count as a suspected case; this update upgrades the classification to confirmed. ECDC's daily surveillance update (as of 14:00 May 11) now reports 7 laboratory-confirmed + 2 probable = 9 WHO-tracked cases.
