“They’re absolutely holding me hostage and treating me like a prisoner when I did nothing wrong,” Karey Maniscaldo, a passenger aboard a cruise ship quarantined in Japan because of COVID-19, told NBCNews.
"Buses will move you and your belongings from the ship to the aircraft," it said, adding that passengers would"be screened for symptoms and we are working with our Japanese partners to ensure that any symptomatic passengers receive the required care in Japan if they cannot board the flight."
Maniscalco's fellow passenger Melanie Haering was also concerned because her husband John Haering had tested positive with COVID—19 three days ago. She said he was currently being kept in a Tokyo hospital about an hour away from the ship. Haering, from Utah, was also frustrated about the lack of communication from the U.S. Embassy, which she said she had called and emailed numerous times about her husband’s situation.
