Japan torn over whether to test all on cruise ship for coronavirus

The number of people from the ship confirmed to be infected with the potentially deadly coronavirus nearly doubled on Monday to 135.
Being trapped in cramped quarters is also taking a toll on the elderly who require medical care for conditions unrelated to the coronavirus.
"It would use up a lot of test kits, meaning if another outbreak happens in Japan we may not be able to deal with it swiftly."
Considering how anxious the passengers must be, politically speaking it will probably become necessary to test everyone," he said.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that many on the ship are elderly.
