Cruise ships are returning to Australia, New Zealand and Tahiti amidst reports that four cruise ships (two operated by Princess Cruises and two by Royal Caribbean) are rife with COVID-19. It seems a bit like déjà vu to hear of a Princess cruise ship arriving in Australia with passengers infected with COVID-19. Meanwhile in Juneau, Alaska, cruise ships gone, COVID transmission down. Reports are that COVID-19-only decks of infected passengers are “overflowing” with infected guests. Concerns whether rural and remote towns can deal with #COVID19 from #cruise ships (@PrincessCruises & @RoyalCaribbean) calling on Australian ports .
