Australian and New Zealand passengers will be evacuated from a stricken Antarctic cruise ship on April 9, after almost 60 percent of those on board tested positive for the CCP virus.
The Greg Mortimer, a cruise liner operated by Australia’s Aurora Expeditions, departed March 15 on a voyage to Antarctica and South Georgia. Since the beginning of April, however, the ship has been stuck off the coast of Uruguay, after authorities refused to allow passengers to disembark due to the risk of CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
