Nagasaki Cruise ship's negative confirmation crew adjust to return New Corona April 26 23:31

Due to a new infection of a new coronavirus caused by a foreign crew member of a large cruise ship anchored at Nagasaki Port, Nagasaki Prefecture has basically confirmed that the crew member who wants to return to Japan immediately should have a negative test. In the future, we will urgently coordinate with the country.

On the large-scale cruise ship “Costa Atlanchika” anchored at the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Nagasaki Shipyard's Koyaki Factory in Nagasaki Port, 148 out of 623 crew members, which are mostly foreigners, were infected with the new coronavirus. Was confirmed by the 25th.

One of them is seriously ill and is hospitalized at a medical institution in Nagasaki Prefecture, but all of the others remain on board.

Regarding the future response, in Nagasaki Prefecture, crew members who were confirmed negative by inspection, except for those who are necessary for ship operation etc., basically disembarked promptly without leaving 14 days of follow-up observation and returned to Japan. In the future, I will urgently make adjustments with the country.

Regarding the crew members who have been confirmed to be positive, we will improve the medical system in the prefecture, assuming that the symptoms will worsen in the future, and we hope that those who do not have mild illness or symptoms will return to Japan as soon as possible after the follow-up observation is over. I will.

On the other hand, two other large cruise ships "Costa Neo Romantica" and "Costa Serena" that were moored at the Koyaki Factory did not have crew members who complained of symptoms such as fever, and both were abroad on the 27th. Departed for.
