#1 Interesting. Now that they've tests, we'll what's proportion of test-positive to symptomatic.
What we have now is 142/1800 = 8%

#2 Cruise ships contain many Middle-East, African and Asian members. Imagine spending 6 months on the ship then being off for 6 months, repeat. This is ALMOST as bad as being in the US Navy.

#3 I don't expect much more success from the closed ventilation hospital ships. Hopefully they will only be providing ICU and surgery for ER trauma.

#4 I took a "Behind the Scenes" tour of a big Carnival Cruise ship where they walked us past the on board brig and the "death at Sea" facilities. They had a total capacity of 6 "toe tag customers" at one time. Sounds like this cruise is getting close.
