There are 1,243 passengers and 586 crew on board and more tests are being done every day, the company said.Among them are McLeod and her husband, retired teachers. In an email to The Canadian Press, McLeod said what had been a mostly enjoyable trip was turned on its head last weekend.
"We have good contact with them, but they're really frustrated because the information I'm giving them is different from the information on the ship," Morrell said. Like Innes and McLeod, Kasprow's mother is healthy and effectively shut inside her room with her friend, he said."My mom's demeanour certainly changed in the past 24 hours from, 'This will be OK,' to hearing news that people on board had passed away," Kasprow said.
But Morrell said her parents -- 68 and 69 years old -- don't fit the criteria for moving to the ship, which is reserved for those 70 and older and in good health.

WHY DID YOU GO ON A CRUISE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC
Too bad. Boarded in march. They knew. Sorry for them yes. But really. People following the rules i will help.
They knew about corona when they boarded...so now they may as well stay put and wait it out. Probably less likely to get it int their room than getting on a plane back homewith sick ppl who lie and say they are fine when they board the plane.
Boarded in march ?! F’em
Adventure - Caution = Anxiety
I'm going to say the unpopular thing. Why did they go? I encouraged people in February to stop traveling & STRONGLY cautioned against cruises. Cruises had been quarantined since January. Their doctor would've said no. I hope they're ok & get back, but... why did they go?
Trying to go where no man has gone before WilliamShatner
TBAOsborne The type of people I wish Natural Selection applied to.
Couldn’t imagine, make it home safely♥️
Surprised Trudope hasn't offered the cruise ships to come to Canada.
This ship left mid-March - these a$$holes knew of the danger and went anyways.
If foolishness were a crime half this government would be in jail. Show some compassion people. They made a mistake but they must be going through hell on that ship. We can't pick and choose which Canadians we need to help
I guess the privileged asses should of stayed home.
I wanna know what date cruise started... If this was 2 weeks ago fuk em and they can stay there
Are they going to have to start dropping bodies off the coast before something gets done It should have never gotten this out of hand..They will be making horror movies about cruises & COVID.
Keep them there. They chose to go on that floating petri dish. Why should the tax payers bail them out?
Should have thought about that before leaving for it DURING a global PANDEMIC!! You made your bed, now lay in it! COVID19
WHY DID THEY GO ON A CRUISE
Next time in a middle of a pandemic stay home but I guess the buffet was more important....now good luck I cancelled by travel plans
Who goes on a cruise after this started in January?
Everyone new virus was going around why the fuck they go vacation? I really don’t feel sorry for anyone who left
May they be rescued as fast as possible. They have been out there a long time with no where to dock.
You sang ? I’m delighted : Well, dance now.”
So I guess the anxiety comes from booking a cruise in advance, knowing there is a pandemic and then boarding said cruise....right
I hope this sinks the cruise ship industry after this. I literally will not travel to a place a cruise ship disembarks.
By month of March, we all could see this tsunami coming. But wishing luck to those stuck in this unfortunate situation.
Hang in there neighbors, help iz coming!
Guess the good price on the cruise they got backfired.
Why would anyone be on a cruise ship at this point? Why?
The ones who appear to be well are now transferred to the sister ship Rotterdam
So you board a ship on March 11th knowing what's going on the world. I hope they stay healthy but if they leave they put all of us at risk. Stay put please. Sorry.
where are the dead bodies? gross. why the fuck are they on a cruise in the middle of armageddon
Leave them there! Stupid people
Sorry no sympathies for people creating their own distress...Getting on a cruise was very bad judgment from their part.
When did all these people book their trips
anxiety probably grows on both sides.
You had one job....”stuck”
Spell chock
No one stopping them from jumping off
Still have no idea why any moron would go on a cruise during a pandemic which we knew about since January and then get mad at the government for not letting them back in when they were stupid for getting on a floating cesspool in the first place.
I feel bad for them. But why did you go on a cruise in the middle of a pandemic?
struck by what lol
