Those who tested positive must now continue to isolate themselves in their cabins. The doors of those affected were marked in red during the journey, passengers told 9News. If you want to leave the ship, you must show a negative antigen test.
Just a few days ago, another cruise ship, the Coral Princess, also arrived in Sydney with more than 100 confirmed corona cases. The corona figures in Australia have risen again recently. According to statistics, there have been an average of more than 40,000 new infections per day in the past seven days. A few days ago, Queensland’s regional head of government Annastacia Palaszczuk asked Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to call a cabinet meeting to discuss the situation.
