Passengers of the Westerdam liner began to go ashore

This is reported by NHK.

It is noted that the ship left Hong Kong on February 1, after which it was denied entry into the ports of Taiwan, Thailand, Japan, the Philippines and Guam due to concerns about a new type of coronavirus.

Passengers will travel to Phnom Penh, from where they will be delivered to their home countries.

Earlier it became known that the number of passengers infected with coronavirus aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship reached 219.
