Popis: | Highlights • First COVID-19 outbreak in Spain. • A hotel guest from Italy presented to a hospital with symptoms of an acute respiratory infection. • The hotel was immediately placed under quarantine for 14 days. • Control measures employed to mitigate a large international cluster. • In total, eight hotel guests have been identified as Covid-19 cases. Since the first accounts of SARS-CoV-2, authorities have encountered numerous unprecedented situations threatening public health. This rapid communication addresses events that led to the quarantining of a hotel in Tenerife, Spain and the effectiveness of the rapidly implemented control measures. In total, eight cases have been associated with the hotel. Due to the international nature of the guests, had these timely precautions not been in place, a multinational cluster might have formed. |
