Secretary Azar said that 26 people evacuated from the Grand Princess cruise ship were sick, not all with Coronavirus. VP Pence said everyone on the ship "will be tested."

Everyone on that ship should have been tested days ago, and we should already know the exact number of infected passengers and crew.

So what's the number of infected, and how serious are their infections?

Arm chair quarterbacking doesn’t always make good use of supplies. We don’t know how many people were tested. The number would likely change over time so hourly/daily testing wouldn’t be helpful if many were exposed while standing in long lines, waiting to board the ship. The ship likely quarantined and the real question would be when the ship’s people are prepared to disembark - test/quarantine when it’s time to act on it. But then, I’m not just assuming “nobody cares’ or they aren’t doing their jobs etc.
