# WHO # hantavirus "WHO head tells countries to prepare for more hantavirus cases Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus praises Spain’s ‘compassion and solidarity’ in evacuating virus-hit cruise ship Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus urged authorities to follow the WHO’s advice and recommendations, which include a 42-day quarantine and constant monitoring of high-risk contacts. 'At the moment, there is no sign that we are seeing the start of a larger outbreak, but of course the situation could change and, given the long incubation period of the virus, it’s possible we might see more cases in the coming weeks,' he told a press conference in Madrid on Tuesday." https://www. theguardian.com/world/2026/may /12/who-head-warns-countries-prepare-more-hantavirus-cases
