Grand Princess: 21 test positive for coronavirus on California cruise ship

CNN  

San Francisco CNN — Twenty-one people aboard the Grand Princess cruise ship tested positive for coronavirus, Vice President Mike Pence said Friday. The Grand Princess had beenin limbo off the California coast with thousands aboard since Wednesday and the California Air National Guard dropped off test kits by helicopter to the ship on Thursday, when officials learned that a California man who’d traveled on that ship last month contracted coronavirus and died this week. “The fact that we weren’t told first made us quite upset and angry … There’s no excuse for this.” Coronavirus testing kits are dropped Thursday to the Grand Princess cruise ship off the California coast. Those that require additional medical attention will receive it.” There are more than 3,500 people aboard the Grand Princess – 2,422 guests and 1,111 crew members, Princess Cruises said.
