Rare Liljo22 Posted January 31, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I think the other thread got deleted as it got argumentative. For those following, the passengers tested negative for Coronavirus. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/30/6000-people-in-lockdown-on-italian-cruise-ship-over-coronavirus-fears.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP posted it the same time as the other thread. I bumped it to post that the test came back negative since the other thread got deleted.
