Dozens of passengers stuck for nearly a week on a U.S. cruise ship in Cambodia disembarked Wednesday, after being given the all-clear from a deadly coronavirus.

The Westerdam made shore in Sihanoukville on February 13 after being rejected by five countries over fears its passengers could be carrying the new virus, which has killed more than 2,000 people.

Once the American woman's case was discovered, the remaining passengers on the Westerdam were ordered to stay on board, but they have now all been given a clean bill of health. "Thank you very much Mr. Prime Minister," a jubilant passenger -- one among 230 who disembarked on Wednesday -- told local TV as she left the ship.The head of cruise operator Holland America said he was thankful for the help Cambodia provided.

"All passengers have normal health with no noticeable problems and no-one had high temperatures," the ministry said in a statement.
