The government of St Vincent required tests of all of the crew being returned. The first test was the quick antibody tests in returned 29 positive reponses so the government required PCR tests to look for active cases. 7 have tested positive out of the first 77 tests. They are currently waiting for the remaining 295 tests. This is for crew that have been "in quarantine/isolation since May 5 according to other news reports. At this time, given the limited availability of testing onboard ships and inconsistent reporting from cruise ships, CDC does not have confirmation or evidence that any cruise ship is free of COVID-19. This is why Manila makes everyone wait so long and requires the testing to get off the ships not matter where they have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people who read stories like this are not of the mind that cruising will resume in 2020. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
