After more than 60 people on a single Japanese cruise ship were diagnosed with Coronavirus, CDC officials are testing passengers on U.S. ships.
Surprisingly, he reported that most people on the ship seem to be taking the quarantine in stride, though many are staying out of common areas and sticking to their cabins when possible. He also said that regular announcements over the ship’s PA system remind passengers to wash their hands in hot, soapy water as frequently as possible. Public health officials say that’s one of the best ways to defend yourself against coronavirus.
Amid the situation on the ship in Japan, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is making the decision to extensively test passengers on American cruise ships, as well. A ship that docked just this morning in New Jersey, near New York City,“There are folks on the ship that have a history of travel to China and so CDC and local health officials are going to board the ship when it docks to do an assessment in port for coronavirus,” a CDC official told CNN.
The coronavirus outbreak originated in Wuhan, China, which is now on complete lockdown as officials race to develop a vaccine and prevent the disease from further spreading. There have been confirmed cases in around 20 other countries, and hundreds have died from the pneumonia-like illness.
