TOKYO—Japan said Wednesday that 10 people on a cruise ship with about 3,700 passengers and crew aboard tested positive for the novel coronavirus, and the health minister said everyone is likely to be kept on the ship for two weeks. The Diamond Princess has been quarantined since Monday night in Yokohama, a port city just south of Tokyo, after an 80-year-old man from Hong Kong who had been on the ship tested positive for the virus. The man disembarked in Hong Kong and is no longer on the ship.
