Il Tempo: Hantavirus, la nave del focolaio è a Tenerife: scatta il trasferimento protetto dei passeggeri La nave da crociera Hondius, in cui si è diffusa un'epidemia di hantavirus, è arrivata verso le 7 di questa mattina al porto di Granadilla, nel sud dell'isola spagnola di Tenerife. Gli oltre 100 passeggeri e una parte dell'equipaggio saranno fatti scendere e trasferiti in strutture sanitarie. Il resto dell'equipaggio invece proseguirà il viaggio per l'Olanda. Le autorità di Tenerife hanno impedito alla nave di attraccare in porto, anche se sul molo sono state allestite tende per l'accoglienza. Rimarrà in rada fino a quando passeggeri e marittimi saranno fatti scendere, tra oggi e domani. Li attendono aerei speciali che li riporteranno a casa.  A bordo ci sono passeggeri e membri dell'equipaggio di 23 diversi Paesi. Mentre iniziano le operazioni dei protocolli sanitari finisce il viaggio organizzato dalla compagnia olandese Oceanwide Expeditions dall'Artico all'Antartide. Una crociera di lusso - prezzi a cabina tra i 16.000 e i 25.000 euro - per appassionati di birdwatching e natura con tre morti, di cui due deceduti a bordo, almeno altri cinque passeggeri infetti e vari possibili contagiati dal virus finora poco conosciuto al di fuori dell'Argentina. Hantavirus: the outbreak ship is in Tenerife; protected passenger transfer is being initiated. The cruise ship Hondius, where a hantavirus outbreak occurred, arrived around 7 a.m. this morning at the port of Granadilla, in southern Tenerife, the Spanish island. More than 100 passengers and part of the crew will be disembarked and transferred to healthcare facilities. The rest of the crew will instead continue the voyage to the Netherlands. Tenerife authorities prevented the ship from docking at the port, although tents were set up on the dock for reception. It will remain in port until passengers and seafarers are disembarked, between today and tomorrow. Special flights will await to take them home. There are passengers and crew from 23 different countries on board. As health protocol operations begin, the organized trip from the Arctic to Antarctica by the Dutch company Oceanwide Expeditions ends. A luxury cruise – cabin prices between €16,000 and €25,000 – for birdwatching and nature enthusiasts, with three deaths, two of which occurred on board, at least five other passengers infected and various possible infections with the previously little-known virus outside Argentina. #Tenerife #Hondius #Granadilla #Spanish #Netherlands #Arctic #Antarctica #Dutch #Argentina https://www.iltempo.it/esteri/2026/05/10/news/hantavirus-nave-da-crociera-focolaio-tenerife-trasferimento-protetto-passeggeri-47654830/

April observes a tendency for greater precipitation (green shading) over the satellite-era across the Barents Sea region of the #Arctic, along with parts of Western Siberia and Central Greenland.

Agi: New York e l'incanto del lago ghiacciato AGI - Quaranta giorni ghiacciato, un fenomeno che non accadeva a New York da decenni: è lo scenario suggestivo del Reservoir, il popolare lago interno a Central Park, che a distanza dalla prima ondata artica di gennaio, continua a mostrare uno scenario polare, mai visto prima. A migliaia, ogni giorno, i newyorkesi vanno a vedere il lago ghiacciato. Media locali fanno servizi e invitano a visitare il Reservoir, prima che lo strato di ghiaccio si rompa. Nonostante le temperature si siano alzate, non sembra deciso a cedere. New York and the enchantment of the frozen lake. AGI - Forty days frozen, a phenomenon that hadn't occurred in New York for decades: it’s the evocative setting of Reservoir, the popular inland lake in Central Park, which, since the first Arctic wave in January, continues to show a polar scene, never before seen. Thousands, every day, New Yorkers are going to see the frozen lake. Local media are doing reports and inviting visitors to see the Reservoir before the ice layer breaks. Despite the temperatures rising, it doesn't seem determined to yield. #NewYork #Reservoir #CentralPark #first #Arctic #NewYorkers https://www.agi.it/estero/video/2026-03-02/lago-ghiacciato-central-park-35903808/

Russia's doctrine in action. Moscow has long defined the Arctic as a vital strategic zone. Any NATO military buildup on Greenland is automatically framed as a direct threat to Russian national security and northern fleet bastions.😀 #Russia #Greenland #Arctic #BreakingNews
