Up to a dozen Irish citizens are on board a cruise liner which is being refused entry to Panama after four passengers died from coronavirus and more than 140 others contracted the virus

RTÉ News understands the Irish passengers are on board the Seattle-based Holland America cruise ship the Zaandam, which has been blocked from travelling through the Panama Canal due to the outbreak and is now re-routing to San Diego.

However, after concerns emerged during its voyage, it was stopped from travelling on its original route, forcing it to base itself off the coast of Panama and to request permission to re-route to San Diego in California.

Seriously, you have to ask at what level of stupid are people who went on a cruise in the last three weeks.

Keep them on it NO ONE FORCED THEM TO CRUISE. We are all staying in and complying with advice. So let them there😡😡😡😡😡😡

Lets go and holiday in a floating Petrie dish in the midst of a pandemic, sure whats the worst that can happen.

Modern Day Coffin Ships. Only difference is , in '47, they sailed on the ships out of necessity.

Unless this was a 6 weeks cruise there’s no excuse. Wtf were they thinking 🙄

The mind boggles!

The princess cruise ship was such a disaster it has it's own section on the list of countries that have been effected, but let's risk that cruise eh? It won't happen to us 🙄

How many feckin eejits are still on their holidays? Quarantine them for minimum two weeks or just leave them there. They were told to come back ages ago.
