Nearly one in four guests tested positive for Covid-19 before the cruise ship docked at Sydney's Circular Quay early on Saturday morning Guests who tested positive and chose to stay on the ship were required to isolate for at least five days. The outbreak is like that of the Ruby Princess cruise ship in early 2020, where 914 people onboard tested positive for Covid-19 and 28 people died. When asked about comparisons between the Majestic Princess and the Ruby Princess - which belonged to the same operator - Ms Fitzgerald said: “That is nearly three years ago and, since then, we as a community have learned a lot, a lot more about Covid.” “We’ve learned what works to help mitigate transmission, we’ve learnt how to keep our vulnerable people safe and it is no different in the cruise industry.” One disembarking passenger told ABC that the ship’s crew had handled the outbreak well.
