Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, the World Dream cruise ship has been held in quarantine since docking Wednesday, after eight former passengers tested positive for the virus.
Kent and Rebecca Frasure found themselves on a cruise ship under quarantine in Japan after a coronavirus outbreak.
"No one wants us," Holst told CNN from the cruise ship, which is currently sailing through the East China Sea.
Before arriving in Hong Kong, the World Dream had docked at several ports across China and Vietnam.
There is no word yet when the World Dream may be allowed to leave Hong Kong.
