San Juan - The Caribbean Princess cruise ship decided on Monday not to let its passengers disembark on Grand Cayman Island, two of which, in serious condition, were evacuated and taken by air to Florida (USA), for fear of Covid 19.
Regarding the two “seriously ill” people it has not been detailed if they suffer from the disease, but the authorities indicated that they have been transferred to the United States via air ambulance.
In a statement, the director of the local Port Authority, Joseph Woods, warned that at the moment no one on board has symptoms of said coronavirus, but that the measure of not letting passengers down has been taken as a precaution.
The ship is now sailing back to Miami (Florida), according to local media.
The temperature in Perth is 92 today. That blows the hot temperature theory all to heck.
