The 17 Americans stranded aboard the hantavirus-stricken MV Hondius cruise ship have started evacuating the vessel and will soon be on their way to to the US for quarantine. Video and photos showed the passengers, clad in blue plastic ponchos, bouffant caps and medical facemasks, seated on a small boat after finally disembarking at the port of Grandilla de Abona in Tenerife in Canary Islands.
