YCMTSU: Passengers on cruise ship found out about positive test results from watching Dence on tv.

Passengers on the ship found out about the test results from Pence's press briefing, according to a video from a passenger on the ship.

"We apologize but we were not given advance notice of this announcement by the US federal government," according to an announcement broadcast on the ship and recorded on the video. "It would have been our preference to be the first to make this news available to you."

One passenger, Debbi Loftus, told CNN Friday she was watching MSNBC when she saw Pence's briefing on the ship.

"I thought the passengers were supposed to be notified first," she said, adding that she was celebrating her father's 84th birthday aboard the Grand Princess.

"The fact that we weren't told first made us quite upset and angry ... There's no excuse for this."
