Sixty additional people on a cruise ship quarantined in Yokohama have tested positive for a new coronavirus, a government official said Monday.

U.S. company Princess Cruise Lines Ltd, which operates the cruise ship, said Monday that it will fully refund all passengers who were unable to disembark at Yokohama due to the virus outbreak.
