A crew member on the coronavirus-stricken Grand Princess cruise ship has died, a local advocacy group announced Friday morning.

The worker, who was Filipino, was transferred from the ship to a hospital in San Francisco, where the person died, becoming the third aboard the ill-fated island-hopping excursion to perish from the disease.

A group of other Filipino workers from the ship, who have since been repatriated, along with local labor and community officials, plan to hold a news conference Friday to “protect the rights, health and livelihood” of fellow crew members as they are released from quarantine on Saturday.

That includes “demanding transparency, testing, and treatment” for everyone quarantined on the ship, the news release said.

While passengers on the cruise eventually disembarked at the Port of Oakland — many of whom were just released from quarantine at Travis Air Force Base — hundreds of the ship’s crew members have remained on board, under quarantine, as it relocated to San Francisco’s cruise terminal this week. They will be allowed to leave the ship Saturday afternoon, according to the California Office of Emergency Services.

Two male passengers were the first on board the ship to die from COVID-19, federal officials announced last week, while 103 had tested positive.

The Department of Health and Human Services did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Friday.
