Coronavirus outbreak: Freedom nears for Australians trapped on Diamond Princess cruise shipAnother 70 people have tested positive for coronavirus on board the Diamond Princess cruise ship docked in Yokohama, Japan, as the Australian government devises a plan to rescue some 200 Australian passengers Just posting this here for the useless western media to read. Of course it's spreading on the cruise ship, there was no need ever to keep them on the ship as contact viruses spread faster in confined spaces. Japan really handled this one poorly. Interesting to see what they’ll do for the Olympics. Once these passengers are removed from the ship. Surely this vessel itself will have to be quarantined and disinfected for an extensive period of time. Otherwise future passengers would have concerns about contracting the virus.
