Well, another control test petri dish to get data. That government will probably ignore.
The Diamond Princess cruise ship... basically another floating petri dish of old people...had about a 20% infection rate and seven deaths (all elderly) out of 3,700 passengers.
A death rate not even on par with the flu.

They really should send these cruise liners to the countries they are flagged under. Not surprisingly very few if not none are all foreign flagged to escape US taxes, even the Disney cruises fly under the Bahamian flag. There's only one big sea cruise ship registered in the USA - ms Pride of America, and the sole reason for that is she sails in Hawaii exclusively, the whole year-round.

Using derogatory terms like ‘floating petri dish’ is no more appropriate than calling a school a ‘petri dish’ or a plane a ‘flying petri dish’.
