Passengers who require medical treatment and hospitalization will be taken to medical facilities in California
Grand Princess cruise ship passenger Teresa Duncan Johnson responded with a “Thank God” as the captain announced the coronavirus-plagued vessel would be docking Sunday and passengers would begin their journey home.“You just never know,” she texted in a statement to PEOPLE afterword that things had already changed.
All passengers are confined to their rooms, with food and crafts dropped outside their doors as the ship makes loops within sight of the Golden Gate bridge. The Augusta, Georgia, couple at least has a stateroom with a balcony, and Teresa fought boredom by keeping up on the news and checking Facebook.
Oakland councilmember Larry Reid told local news outlets that the Grand Princess cruise ship, which is carrying more than 3,500 people from 54 countries, will dock in a vacant area at the Port of Oakland on Sunday. That was later revised to Monday. Other California residents will go to a federally operated facility in the state for testing and isolation. Non-Californians will be transported by the federal government to facilities in other states.
