.
The cabins had not yet been sanitized at that point, and CDC researchers said it was too early to draw conclusions from the data. In February, during the beginning of the outbreak, the Diamond Princess represented the largest cluster of coronavirus cases outside of mainland China, as 712 people who were aboard the boat contracted the virus.CDC researchers found that 46% of the infected passengers and crew members were asymptomatic at the time of testing. The report added that roughly 18% of infected persons never developed symptoms.
More than 100 American passengers tested positive, and all but 11 were repatriated back to America, according to the CDC. The Americans who are still in Japan are being hospitalized, with seven of them in serious condition, the report said.
