Israeli woman on coronavirus-hit cruise ship tested positive upon return to Israel: Officials

JERUSALEM: An Israeli woman who was a passenger aboard a coronavirus-hit cruise ship tested positive upon return to her home country on Friday, Israel's health ministry said.

"In the course of testing conducted by the Health Ministry’s central laboratory, one of the passengers who returned from the ship in Japan was found to be positive," the Israeli health ministry said in a statement on Friday. "They were landed in the far end of the runway so they won't be able to touch anything," Matzner said.
