Westerdam started in Hong Kong February 1st and has now been refused docking in Japan, Guam(US), Phillipines and now Thailand.

No one has been confirmed sick.

Just read where Cambodia has agreed to take the ship in and let them disembark.

Having just been to Cambodia in July and seeing a children's hospital in Siem Reap with 1300 full beds dealing with dengue fever, I’m not sure this is the greatest move for them.

I would hope they stay on their clean boat until a bus can take them directly to an airport and chartered flight out to who knows where.

Where are they going to go but to other Asian countries who wint them.

Perhaps the ship will stay at the pier until 14 days are up and the. They are free to travel home.

Looks like more hysteria, as no one is even ill. This is a really tough situation for everyone.
