David and Sally Abel, the British passengers who caught coronavirus on the Diamond Princess cruise ship docked off Yokohama, are still being treated in an isolation unit in a Japanese hospital.
In a video update on Sunday, they said they were recovering well, but Sally said she had tested positive again for the virus, after testing negative last week.
The crew began leaving the Diamond Princess on Thursday for quarantine ashore after the last of the passengers had departed.
“Including the captain, all crew members disembarked,” health minister Katsunobu Kato told reporters late Sunday.
