Sailors in fear of COVID 19

Sailors aboard the 'Maersk Nexus', based in St. John's, were worried for their safety after the provincial government approved four American technicians to join the ship without self-isolating upon entering the province. Several crew members on the 'Maersk Nexus' have opposed the company's decision to bring in the workers from Oil States Industries to join them as the ship heads to Quebec for repairs next month. Oil States Industries has several bases in Texas, where COVID-19 is surging at a rate rivalled only by Florida. A Maersk executive said the Americans will arrive in St. John's around Aug. 11, 2020, and proceed straight to their hotel where they will be tested for the coronavirus. The test must come back negative before they can board the ship, which is due to depart for a shipyard in Les Méchins, Quebec, on Aug. 12.
