A holiday cruise ship carrying about 800 passengers with Covid-19 has docked in Sydney, Australia.
The Majestic Princess cruise ship arrived at Circular Quay, having sailed from New Zealand.
About 4,600 passengers and crew were aboard the ship when it docked - meaning around one in five had Covid.
The outbreak is reminiscent of the Ruby Princess cruise ship Covid outbreak of early 2020, where at least 900 people tested positive and 28 died.

People now view covid cases different ly. As long as no deaths Figure 800 or 100k cases are ignored. (Except prc).

Yeah, now deaths a 'lot' less. Right now worst is Japan with 95 deaths 2 days ago. Then Russia, Taiwan and South Korea. Then all the way south to Indonesia at 33 deaths.
Singapore? 1 death. Pretty stable for Singapore. 5 or less deaths from COVID-19 every day since early August.

The price for ignorance in the age of COVID is sickness and death. What's worst is some pple wanna pretend we are now back to "normal" like before 2020.

I disagree - Lower fatal count does not mean SARS-CoV2 virus has stop mutating.

SARS-CoV2 virus need not stop mutating so long as human lives are not endangered.
the viruses are also living things albeit invisible by human naked eyes. they need to survive too.
