A Ruby Princess passenger who contracted COVID-19 on board says the ship’s senior doctor told him she did not believe he had the virus when he presented with symptoms.

Anthony Londero was one of two passengers taken to Sydney’s Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPA) by ambulance in the early hours of 19 March after the cruise ship docked.
