Coronavirus | Egypt says cruise ship quarantined over new virus cluster

The Hindu  

A cruise ship on Egypt’s Nile River with over 150 tourists, including Indians, and local crew was in quarantine Saturday in the southern city of Luxor, after 12 people tested positive for the new coronavirus. Health authorities in Egypt released a statement on Friday saying they’d found a dozen Egyptian crew members on the ship had contracted the fast-spreading virus, but did not show symptoms. Egyptian authorities said Friday that they have tested over 2,500 people who were found not to have the virus, including foreign nationals. Egypt does not appear to have taken any of these types of measures, and Friday’s discovery of the 12 cases coincided with the opening day of the Luxor African Film Festival.
