The Australian cruise ship Greg Mortimer is surrounded by two cargo ships off the port of Montevideo.

Confirmed Covid-19 cases on the MV Greg Mortimer – currently anchored off Montevideo – jumped from 81 to 128 on Tuesday with a medical flight for the around 100 Australians onboard expected as early as Thursday. “The plane going to Australia is set up with medical facilities for this type of situation and will be managed in alignment with current Covid-19 protocol to ensure the health and safety of all onboard,” the company said.

Six passengers who were brought ashore in serious condition were now stable in Uruguay, the operator said.
