'Unconscionable to keep them on cruise ship’: WHOs Gostin warns against repeating COVID-era mistakes




François Picard is pleased to welcome Lawrence Gostin, Author, Director of the WHO Center on Global Health Law. His analysis highlights the legal and ethical dilemmas surrounding a cruise ship carrying suspected hantavirus cases off the coast of Cape Verde. Drawing direct parallels with the traumatic memory of cruise ships stranded during the COVID-19 pandemic, Gostin argues that the international community has already learned, at enormous human cost, the dangers of confining passengers at sea without adequate medical care or disembarkation plans.
