Hantavirus-hit ship expected in Canaries early on Sunday

The cruise ship hit by a deadly hantavirus outbreak is expected to arrive in the Canary Islands on Sunday between 0300 and 0500 GMT, Spanish Health Minister Monica Garcia Gomez announced on Saturday.

"Neither the luggage nor the body of the deceased person will be disembarked in the Canary Islands -- they will remain on board with part of the crew," she said, adding that the ship would continue on its way to the Netherlands.
