niman Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 On February 1 he tested positive for coronavirus, prompting Japanese authorities to deny entry to the ship and screen more than 3,700 people for the virus when the vessel returned to Yokohama on February 3. Of the 3,711 people screened on the ship, 273 were selected for further tests. They had disembarked in Hong Kong or been in contact with the 80-year-old. It is not yet known for certain whether the 80-year-old was the cruise ship's 'patient zero' who transmitted the virus to other passengers. The deadly virus could have been brought on board by another person as American passengers Clyde and Renee Smith said they had been on a bus trip with the man in Kagoshima but both tested negative for the virus. Guests who had been in contact with him were among the 273 selected for testing, of whom 61 since tested positive. Japanese media said the man had been in contact with 36 passengers, including at least two of the first ten who tested positive. +10 A map showing the journey of the Diamond Princess since January 20.
