Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus, head of the World Health Organisation, speaks in Tenerife after MV Hondius left port a short while ago.
"As you know, the ship is going to Rotterdam. There are around 30 people, the crew and two health workers. They will still need our support throughout their journey," the WHO boss says.
The MV Hondius, the cruise ship at the centre of the hantavirus outbreak, has departed Tenerife for the Netherlands after its final passengers disembarked. Meanwhile, the head of the World Health Organisation has warned more cases are expected.
