Here's why: Suga said it would be too difficult to test everyone for the virus but that the government provides necessary information to ensure the good health and safety of the passengers and crew members on the ship as a top priority. Suga says authorities are testing samples of people who have fever, those over 80 and feel ill, as well as those who had close contact with infected passengers. There are more than 3,700 people on board the cruise ship, including 2,600 passengers. About the ship: There are 65 newly confirmed coronavirus cases on the Diamond Princess ship docked in Yokohama, bringing the total number on board to 135. The new cases nearly doubled the total, from 70 confirmed cases on Sunday. At least 24 Americans are infected on board the ship. The vessel has been quarantined since Tuesday, and passengers are expected to remain under quarantine for at least 14 days. --- "We would have no NBA possibly if they got rid of all the flopping." ~ Dwyane Wade https://imgur.com/MYYEIx5 https://imgur.com/WGE12ef ...
