At least 36 crew members and four former passengers have tested positive for coronavirus.

“A preliminary evaluation shows that there has been a failure in several of our internal procedures,” Hurtigruten CEO Daniel Skjeldam said in a statement. He added the company that sails along Norway’s picturesque coast between Bergen in the south and Kirkenes in the north is “now in the process of a full review of all procedures, and all aspects of our own handling.

Over the weekend, Skjeldam said cruise ship officials did not know that they should have notified the passengers after the first case was reported Friday, adding that they followed the advice of the ship’s doctors. The virus was not contained onboard. The passengers from two separate voyages, including those who have now tested positive, had already disembarked a cruise on July 24 and the last cruise on Friday, leaving ample time for passengers to begin their voyages home and potentially spread the virus.

36 crew infected on Hurtigruten ship: Passengers disembarked, potentially exposing communitiesThirty-six crew members have tested positive for COVID-19 onboard Hurtigruten's MS Roald Amundsen, the first to sail internationally since the pandemic began. I think the industry is (sadly) doomed until there is a vaccine for Corona 19. Just let the cruise industry die, please. It's terrible for the environment and the ships are a disgusting cesspool. Lol, guess we don't have the market on stupid cornered after all!
