If they are negative - why the quarantine? Sounds reasonable. Unless, of course, they occasionally brought "company" onboard. Bottom line is that they weren't under controlled, supervised conditions. We don't know how many visitors they had. Maybe it was zero, but why risk it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmitch Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 So, after a month on a ship they then spend two weeks in a quarantine hotel, after which they are being sent straight home! Ridiculous. And no mention of what happened to the Thai crew that were on the ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably the Thai and Chinese crew remain on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
