Gay and Phil Courter say that containment measures to prevent the new coronavirus from spreading on the Diamond Princess cruise ship have failed.
Two passengers aboard the quarantined Princess Cruises ship that's docked in Japan told CNBC on Wednesday that containment measures to prevent the new coronavirus from spreading have failed.
"We take our temperature once a day, voluntarily," Phil Courter said. "We are supposed to call if our temperature goes higher than the standard they've set. But that's voluntary, there's nobody checking on anybody."said there were 2,015 confirmed new cases on the mainland and 97 additional deaths related to the new, deadly strain of coronavirus, most of them occurring in Hubei province.
Officials on the ship have arranged for short periods of time that passengers can go on the ship's deck to get fresh air and exercise, though Phil Courter said the pair haven't "taken advantage of that" since they have a balcony in their room.
