An additional 10 people aboard the now-quarantined Diamond Princess cruise liner have tested positive for the coronavirus, bringing the current total to 20. Concerns arose after a passenger who disembarked in Hong Kong on Jan. 25 tested positive for the virus. The first 10 passengers who tested positive were transported to local medical centers, Princess Cruises said Wednesday. On Thursday, however, the cruise line released a subsequent statement confirming that “10 additional people” had tested positive. We continue to work closely with the Japan Ministry of Health on all protocols and procedures while ensuring the comfort of our guests,” Princess cruises added.
