Ruby Princess passengers and their families are taking legal action over a deadly coronavirus outbreak on board the ill-fated cruise ship. Class action group member Graeme Lake's wife Karla died from coronavirus 10 days after returning home from the cruise. "The NSW special commission of inquiry, in which we are participating, is in the process of establishing the facts in relation to Ruby Princess. It is not our intention to respond to the assertions of class action lawyers," the company said. The special commission of inquiry has concluded and is set to report back by mid-August.
