CRUISE SHIP DOCKS IN SYDNEY WITH 800 COVID CASES

  • 12/11/2022

Around 800 passengers on a holiday cruise ship with Covid-19 have landed in Sydney, Australia. After leaving New Zealand, the Majestic Princess cruise ship sailed into Circular Quay.

One in five of the 4,600 passengers and crew on board the ship when it docked had Covid. The outbreak is reminiscent of the Covid outbreak on the Ruby Princess cruise ship in early 2020, which resulted in at least 900 positive tests and 28 fatalities.

About halfway through the 12-day cruise, according to Marguerite Fitzgerald, president of cruise line Carnival Australia, a significant number of cases began to be discovered.
