This article has alot in it.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/4950651002

Princess Cruises cant get a break. This will be interesting to see how this is handed vice Diamond Princess.

So, a former passenger disembarked and later died in California. 62 people on the boat may have been exposed to him. They must be sailing back to back cruises. They are isolated. Does that included the crew? How would they narrow down which crew?

Boat being diverted to San Francisco.

Update, California Governor Newsome has told them to remain offshore. 11 Passengers and 10 crew exhibiting symptoms.

I dont see how the everyone on the ship doesn’t have to enter a 2 week quarantine ashore. What hospital can take 2000+ people. Im thinking a tent city in the wilderness. Where will this be? Some base? Mojave desert? Sequoia national park?

Evidently, there are small clusters in. Alif from former passengers.

This is a video of two ladies on the ship... The Coast Guard is delivering 200 test kits from the CDC.

Yes, I was just reading about this. You're right, Princess can't catch a break. Horrible. They saw how badly things worked on the Diamond. What do they do now?

I say dock all of them. They are doing a pretty good job of spreading the virus.(all of the ships, not just Princess!)

They need to get this boat into a port and the people off into proper quarantine NOW, like this Sunday morning before 8am Pacific.

Since they are using military bases for quarantines.

They could pull into old Alameda Naval Station and set up a tent city or San Diego at North Island or Bremerton north of Seattle.

Get these people away from each other today.

I would not want to load them in buses to spread the disease.

I could see 1000 rental cars lined up on pier to caravan to another location where tents or trailers are located for isolation.

There is no rationale that this will not become another Diamond Princess floating at sea or Pierside.

Ah, they are docking in Oakland “Alameda” Monday. Wise move.

https://www.latimes.com/california/...ome-passengers-quarantine-in-san-antonio

Says Cali residents will stay in Cali and others send around US including San Antonio.

I hate to say it, but i wouldnt want to get in a bus and plane with unknowns. Walk me to a tent city. Or rental cars to be disinfected afterwards by professionals.
