Does Cambodia have the medical resources to handle this?

What, they couldn’t dock in Somalia and find a witch doctor?

All of the countries that they were close to, that didn’t let them doc and get medical care should get sued.

I don’t think the Westerdam has any confirmed cases on board. Countries just won’t let it dock because it came from Hong Kong.

The plight of those on the Princess Cruise off of Japan is going to cause a serious rethinking on how to handle outbreaks on a ship, I suspect. It would have been better all around to put everyone on the ship in a more suitable quarantine location on shore, separated from each other as much as possible.

With everyone left on board, it appears the virus will just work its way through the entire population while putting health workers visiting the ship at risk as well (one of whom now has become infected.)

I view the data from the ship as the best indication of whether or not China will really be able to contain the virus. I don’t trust the numbers the Chinese government is putting out now. The current decline in reported daily cases began exactly one day after President Xi made stopping the virus a national priority. Well, it stopped reporting at least, but did the virus stop spreading as well?
