Otherworldly scenes &#8211; scientists in hazmat suits, passengers in face masks and cleaning teams spraying disinfectant on empty shipboard buffets &#8212; packed the nightly news. With little information available about the new virus and limited access to resources, the ship&#8217;s cases soared.<\/p>\n<p>Passengers were quarantined in their staterooms for weeks while the number of cases on board skyrocketed. Meanwhile, the crew tended to the passengers, delivered room service and slept and dined in cramped, shared quarters. They&#8217;d become what we&#8217;d later term &#8220;essential workers.&#8221; The ship would ultimately account for the first citizens of Argentina, Israel, Portugal, Russia, Ukraine, Indonesia, Kyrgyzstan, and New Zealand to test positive for COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>While the Diamond Princess was in quarantine, U.S. government scientists studied what was transpiring on board. Despite their findings that the virus was likely airborne and that asymptomatic people contributed to the spread, it would be more than one month before the CDC advised the use of masks and more than two months &#8212; and one million confirmed COVID-19 cases in the United States &#8212; before the CDC advised testing asymptomatic people who had been exposed to the virus.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1944796257\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>HBO Documentary Films presents THE LAST CRUISE directed and produced by Hannah Olson; produced by Shane Boris, Joe Beshenkovsky, and James A Smith.
