00:00A passenger aboard the MV Hondias has made an emotional appeal from the quarantined cruise
00:05ship as it remains anchored off Kipvet following a deadly suspected antivirus outbreak. The
00:11vessel remains under strict monitoring after three passengers died and several others fell ill.
00:18I normally wouldn't make a video like this but I feel like I need to say something so I wrote
00:23a
00:23few things down. I am currently on board the MV Hondias and what's happening right now is very
00:30real for all of us here. We're not just a story. We're not just headlines. We're people. People
00:40with families, with lives, with people waiting for us at home. There's a lot of uncertainty and that's
00:50the hardest part. All we want right now is to feel safe, to have clarity, and to get home. So
01:01if
01:01you're seeing coverage about this, just remember that there are real people behind it and that this
01:08isn't something happening somewhere far away. It's happening to us right now. I'll share more when I
01:15can. But for now, I just ask for your kindness and understanding. Thank you. Passengers have been
01:21isolating in their cabins as health officials coordinated next steps. Emergency evacuations
01:27have been arranged for critically ill individuals while the ship is expected to sail to Spain's
01:32Canary Islands once conditions allow. For those still on board, however, the wait continues,
01:38marked by uncertainty, isolation, and a growing desire to return home.
01:43I don't know how to identify. I am a part of the ship. It's happening all the way out of
01:43the ship.
01:45In the meantime, I forget. I was seven days after the ship and the ship. I came to the ship
01:45and the ship
01:45were able to take care of my ship and the ship was as well. I think that you're the only
01:45ship? I don't know. That's very early in the ship. I have to be able to go through. I don't
01:45know that
