Of course there is.
First of all, there are 2600 passengers of which 300 are American citizens and 50 are Floridians.
Take all US citizens off the ship, test them and quarantine if needed, provide medical care to the sick
Then assess the foreign nationals, provide medical care to those that are sick
Then the ship can go sailing, after they are reprovisioned and return foreign nationals to their country of origin, frankly, they are not our responsibility
