Milena Basso and her husband Gaetano Cerullo are trapped on the quarantined Diamond Princess off the coast of Japan, with at least 64 cases of the killer virus confirmed on board.

The couple said the situation on the ship is “desperate” with food and water running out and the disease spreading through the 2,000 trapped passengers.

New cases are being confirmed every day, and the American newlyweds say they still have two weeks to wait before they can leave.

Cerullo told Fox News: “We are kind of worried because we've still got two weeks on here assuming that works out in our favor and we still have to get onto American soil.

“And, if Donald Trump could help us in any way...”

This is what people who can't afford cruises like to say.

That's pretty dang snobberish. I can afford cruises. But I'm not getting locked up with a thousand people and can't leave if I want. Nope. I fly and rent a car if there's something I want to see.

People who say that have an inferiority complex.

It is not a bad thing to not have a lot of money.

I hear they did a pinky swear to self quarantine at home. :)

O. J was in Capricorn 1, another interesting movie that involved a coverup.

And the cruise line is telling reporters that they are seeing to their needs and food situation. Are you saying that the cruise line is lying to the public?

I haven't seen anyone from the cruise line, that has stated any such thing. If so, yes they have probably lied. Cruise lines have been caught in many lies in the past.

Are you saying that the couple lied on national television, with no facts to back up your claims? They seemed very credible to me.

why are they the two young gen Xr's the only ones crying about it then?

I didn't see them crying at all. Where did you see them crying? According to the article, they are not the only ones complaining.

In fact, I just watched several interviews with other various passengers calling it a "Floating Prison" and unless you paid a fortune for one of the few suites, with a balcony, it's not good. But even the suites are not allowed room service. What little food you get, is left outside your door.

Begging? Kinda a stretch

What you should do is quit being hysterical. Statistically speaking you are much more likely to get sick while not on a cruise than on one. Don’t let Fake News rot your brain. Mkay?

[samtheman]

You should not introduce name-calling.

I am just sharing my opinion, as are you.

I never liked the idea of a cruise. Long before coronovirus.

That doesn’t make me hysterical.

I am actually quite calm.

I give up on you. Some people can’t be reasoned with or talked to. Try and have a nice day.

[Brown Deer]

Some people can’t be reasoned with...

You must be talking about yourself, because I stated facts and you didn't. You couldn't even answer any of my simple questions.
