The other posts about at-home quarantining have to do with local cases, not the the passengers from the Grand. CA Governor Newsom said at his press conference yesterday that some passengers will be housed in hotels/motels they’ve rented https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/california-governor-newsom-updates-on-coronavirus-mcas-miramar-expected-to-receive-cruise-passengers/509-060f6520-c5ea-42ba-97b7-4be119d5f9de I posted that they were using the Asilomar state conference site/hotel in Monterey for up to 24 passengers last night when someone sent me a text about it. https://www.thecalifornian.com/story/news/2020/03/10/grand-princess-evacuees-coronavirus-headed-monterey-county-covid-19-california-cruis-ship/5016334002/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems not as happy as they were postcasting on board the Grand. These two don’t sound or look well. Are they sick?

The Canadians weren't tested until they got back to their country and so far 1 has tested positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire evacuation and its procedures is being run by the US Government. Not quite. The States are coodinating and executing their own activities as well. Hence you have California, Nevada and Texas securing transportation and setting up quarentine quarters within their States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How stupid does a company have to be to transfer people between ships during a global outbreak? I am not saying that caused their situation. I am saying it was ridiculously bad forethought to do it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
