Cruise ship put under 2-week quarantine as 10 cases confirmed
YOKOHAMA–Health authorities, in a sharp reversal of policy, extended the quarantine period for a cruise ship anchored off this port city by at least 14 days after 10 people aboard were confirmed to be infected with the deadly new coronavirus.
The Diamond Princess had been expected to begin discharging its 3,711 passengers and crew from Feb. 5 at the earliest. Health ministry officials were racing to contain the virus after it was revealed that an infected passenger who disembarked in Hong Kong late last month had tested positive.
After leaving the ship, the 10 patients were taken by ambulance to four hospitals in Kanagawa Prefecture specializing in the treatment of infectious diseases.
The infected men and women range in age from their 50s through 80s, according to the ministry. Three of them are Japanese: a woman in her 50s and a man and a woman in their 60s.
It marked the first confirmed case of a group infection in Japan of the pneumonia-causing virus. Officials were bracing for a surge in the number of cases as the results were based on tests done on 31 people. The ship carried 2,666 passengers and a crew of 1,045.
Samples were taken from 120 potential patients who were showing symptoms of the disease, such as running a fever and coughing, as well as 153 who had been in close contact with them. Health authorities found that 36 people had been in close contact with the man from Hong Kong. Two of them were confirmed to be infected.
So far, the test results of 31 samples have been made available. The ministry is moving to quarantine the passengers and crew members for about two weeks regardless of the absence of symptoms for clearance.
The Diamond Princess will remain near Yokohama Port during the quarantine, according to the operator of the cruise ship.
