Two passengers disembark from MSC Seaside during a cruise around the Mediterranean, one of the few sea voyages currently underway following a global halt to cruising as the coronavirus pandemic spread last year.
(CNN) — Two passengers on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean have tested positive for Covid-19. The pair were traveling on the MSC Seaside cruise ship and disembarked with their families in Syracuse, Sicily, on Tuesday, MSC told CNN on Wednesday. The two passengers were asymptomatic. The cruise had previously docked in Malta but the passengers were forbidden to disembark as the ship only made a "technical" call, according to the cruise operator, which would not disclose the nationality nor the total number of passengers on board.More Related News
