DOMINANT ANGLE
Germany covers the story with scientific rigor: Tagesschau and DW explain hantavirus biology and the evacuation protocols set up by the Netherlands to repatriate sick crew members
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
ANALYSIS
German coverage stands out for its virological precision. Tagesschau publishes two articles: one on the Cape Verde docking block, another on hantavirus itself — its vector (rodents), transmission routes (aerosol inhalation), absence of specific treatment. DW takes a similar angle with a sidebar on historical European hantavirus outbreaks. The Dutch detail that captures German attention: the Netherlands organized an air bridge to repatriate sick crew members, signaling The Hague is taking the situation very seriously.
