lhuggi1 Posted January 23, 2020 Author #2 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) Update: we’ve left port of Tortola about 8pm no further update on the guest situation was given, which is to be expected. (ship rumours) say it was a guest with pneumonia and urgently needed to be assessed. We are praying for a speedy recovery. As for the guest in St Kitts again (ship rumours) this guest did indeed passed away sadly. Edited January 23, 2020 by lhuggi1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cemebro Posted January 23, 2020 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I thought if someone passed on the ship that they would keep them in the ship morgue until they reached the home port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also up to the local authorities in the first port of call, and whether they want to have an inquest or simply issue a certificate of death. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biomedbob Posted January 23, 2020 #9 Share Posted January 23, 2020 At least someone spelled HIPAA correctly. I had to teach it in the 90's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
