A number of the passengers were transported to the hospital, according to the mayor of Bayonne.
More than a dozen passengers from a cruise ship that docked in New Jersey were screened for the new coronavirus, with four of them transported to the hospital.
"I have been briefed on the RC cruise ship arriving this morning. I am certain that the NJ [Department of Health], CDC, and PA NY/NJ are prepared and equipped to address any concerns this morning," Davis posted on Twitter. Symptoms of the coronavirus–fever, coughing and shortness of breath–can be attributed to a number of illnesses, so a person must be tested by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention .
