LOS ANGELES - Among the 2,400 passengers stranded off the California coast on a cruise ship carrying at least 21 people infected with coronavirus, few people aboard likely have more to lose than Kari Kolstoe, a retiree from North Dakota with stage-4 cancer.
"It's very unsettling," she said in a cellphone interview from the ship on Friday ."It's still a worry that I'm going to not get back." Kolstoe spoke with Reuters not long after US Vice President Mike Pence, the Trump administration's point man on coronavirus control, announced that 21 of 46 people tested for COVID-19 aboard the Grand Princess were found to be infected.
"Those that need to be quarantined will be quarantined," including all 1,100 crew members, many of whom may have been exposed to coronavirus during the previous Mexico voyage, Pence said.
