Eight cruise ships are stuck at sea, though 6 of the 8 are near Africa or Asia, and only one is near North America (Pacific Princess, which I have been on before).
There are lawsuits already on the way against Carnival, for allowing passengers to board on one of their subsidiaries' ships on March 5, despite the danger of COVID-19 being clear. Seven people died on that ship. Other lawsuits are also pending.

Some of these ships actually set sail in mid-March. Very dumb.
