Title. Apparently there is a cruise ship quarantined right now because of this. And a guy at work was telling me some of the staff escaped? Not sure what exactly is going on but is it cause for concern?

    It was a commercial flight with 80 passengers. WHO is searching for them.

    Also, another patient from the ship is in a hospital in Switzerland. I have no idea how they got there, but I think it’s safe to say that the ship has not been isolated to begin with.

      And a German is being airlifted to Düsseldorf, a Dutch person to somewhere in the Netherlands and a Brit to Britain.

      This entire thing would not have been a problem whatsoever if the ship had been quarantined and stayed quarantined. Something similar happened in 2018 and thanks to the measures taken only 30 people got infected.
