"SNIP.....


The Grand Princess cruise ship is expected to dock in San Francisco on Thursday as the CDC investigates a "small cluster" of coronavirus cases associated with its previous voyage.

The first patient to die of the new coronavirus in California was on the Grand Princess from February 11 to 21.

The ship is from the same cruise line as the Diamond Princess, which was quarantined for more than two weeks in the port of Yokohama, Japan.

It is not yet clear whether Grand Princess passengers or crew will face a similar quarantine.

At around 10PM the ship had not been allowed to disembark. They need time to get health authorities in place.

Trumps incompetence and malfeasance combined with who knows how many infected carriers walking around for weeks, maybe months. Yikes.
