Once again, the cases of corona are increasing rapidly in the country. Due to the celebration of first Christmas and then New Year, there are explosions in corona cases. In this sequence, after 66 people of Cordelia cruise ship carrying 2,000 passengers got infected with corona, now this ship has been sent back from Goa to Mumbai. At present, all the infected people are also present on the ship and all the infected have been isolated on board. The move was taken after some infected persons refused to be admitted to a corona treatment center in Goa. A shipping agency official gave this information on Tuesday. He said that the infected passengers would be isolated on the ship.
In this regard, Goa Health Minister Vishwajit Rane said that out of 2,000 people on board the Cordelia ship, 66 people have been infected so far. All of them had gone from Mumbai to Goa. After a crew member of a Goa-bound ship on New Year’s Eve got infected with Corona on Sunday, the company had done a corona test of all the passengers. While an official informed that when 27 infected passengers refused to disembark, the ship was sent back around 11:30 pm on Monday night. Out of 66 infected people, only 6 crew members landed in Goa.
It is worth noting that the family members of some infected people are also on the board and their report has come negative. The ship will reach Mumbai by Tuesday afternoon. The passengers who were shifted to the treatment center were also sent back on the ship to go to Mumbai.
