As coronavirus-stricken cruise ship heads toward Florida, governor says passengers can't be 'dumped' there adn.com March 30, 2020 MIAMI — As the Zaandam cruise ship travels toward Florida with four dead passengers and 179 others with flu-like symptoms, Gov. Ron DeSantis insisted Monday that the passengers cannot be "dumped" in his state. "We cannot afford to have people who are not even Floridians dumped into South Florida using up those valuable resources," DeSantis said on Fox News. "We view this as a big, big problem, and we do not want to see people dumped in Southern Florida right now."

A cruise ship headed to Florida has reported more sick people on board... The mind boggles. After watching events in Japan unfold with the cruise ship, more than two weeks prior, they STILL opt to go on a cruise ? Who are these people ? How did they survive this long without checking for traffic before stepping out into it ? Same for the company... they couldn't anticipate this might become an issue ? And, they did nothing to protect the CREW, first, or they otherwise "just weren't able" to prevent the spread of the infection on the boat... even knowing the risks... and what was required to prevent the risks being realized ? Passengers not experiencing symptoms were transferred from the Zaandam to the Rotterdam Saturday, Holland America said in a statement. Because one ship with sick people on it just ISN'T ENOUGH ? Un!@#$%^&believable... At this point... I'd think "we'll let your ship dock, but the people stay on it until all are clear... and at the end of the crisis... the ship stays here... ours now." "Failure to plan, on your part, does not constitute an emergency, on our part" ? Find it curious that none of the reporting even tries to address how the companies are taking responsibility... or not... for the health of the people on their ships ? So many obvious things to be be asking about... and... nope.
