The first cruise ship to sail in Greece post-coronavirus lockdown was forced to dock Tuesday after 12 crew tested positive for the contagion, local officials said.
The Maltese-flagged Mein Schiff 6 set sail from Heraklion in Crete on Sunday evening, but its journey was halted following the “unclear positive COVID-19 tests” from 12 of the 666 crew on board, according to Agence France-Presse.
The 12 crew members and 24 others who had been in contact with them remained in isolation awaiting further test results, the cruise said — with all 922 passengers also forced to stay on the ship, which docked in Piraeus.
