Since the Grand Princess pulled into the port of Oakland with more than 3,500 people on board — including 21 infected with COVID-19 — 1,452 passengers have been removed and placed in 14-day quarantine.

On Tuesday, 1,045 people disembarked and were whisked away by bus and chartered flights to locations around the state and country: 613 went to Travis Air Force Base near Fairfield; 42 to the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar near San Diego; 124 to Dobbins Air Reserve base near Marietta, Ga.; 98 to Lackland Air Force Base near San Antonio, Texas; and 168 were repatriated to the United Kingdom, according to a statement from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services.

The day before, 407 individuals disembarked, including 26 people who needed acute medical care. It was not clear how many of them had tested positive for the virus, said Brian Ferguson, a spokesman for the California Office of Emergency Services. On Monday, many of the nearly 240 Canadians left the ship after the critically ill and stood outside two tents displaying Canadian flags.

Disembarkment of the remaining passengers continued Wednesday at 8:30 a.m.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said at a Tuesday press conference that about 100 passengers are being removed an hour. The passengers' 14-day quarantine will start once they arrive at the military bases; the time they spent self-quarantining on the ship doesn't count toward the two weeks.

About 1,100 crew members, 19 of whom have tested positive for COVID-19, will be quarantined and treated aboard the ship, which will dock elsewhere after passengers are unloaded, Newsom said.
