Evacuation of passengers has ended as cruise ship travels to Norway port
At least 41 passengers and crew on a Norwegian cruise ship have tested positive for COVID-19, officials say. The Viking Sky cruise ship was sailing from Tromsø, Norway, to Spitzbergen, Norway, when the outbreak occurred.
The ship has been diverted to Bodø, Norway, where passengers are being evacuated. The evacuation process began on Monday and is expected to be completed by Tuesday. Once the evacuation is complete, the ship will be disinfected and all passengers and crew will be tested for COVID-19.
The outbreak on the Viking Sky is the latest in a series of COVID-19 outbreaks on cruise ships. In recent months, several other cruise ships have been forced to cancel or delay sailings due to COVID-19 outbreaks.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the cruise industry. Many cruise lines have been forced to cancel or delay sailings, and some have even gone bankrupt.
The outbreak on the Viking Sky is a reminder that the COVID-19 pandemic is still a threat, and that it is important to take precautions to protect yourself from the virus.
