<p>Public health officials have advised that no guests will be permitted to disembark until all results have been received,” it said.</p>
<p>“Out of an abundance of caution, all guests who have been identified for testing have been asked to remain in their staterooms.”</p>

<p>On Thursday, a patient with underlying health conditions became the first person in the UK to die after also testing positive for the virus.</p>
