niman Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 12 minutes ago, Stephen Flynn said: My reference to the Metropole was the situation on the Diamond Princess. It is still unclear if the index case caused the outbreak or was simply the clue that there was a problem on the ship. He was linked to two positives on the bus tour, but not to those on the ship in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
