The coronavirus is now turning legal -- a quarantined cruise in California has been sued for allegedly putting passengers at risk ... when they knew the virus was running rampant on the ship.-- two elderly passengers who are currently on the Grand Princess cruise ship that's been quarantined and stranded out in the Bay Area waters for at least a week now -- just filed suit against the parent company, Princess Cruise Lines.
In the docs, obtained by TMZ, the couple claims the PCL was grossly negligent in allowing them and thousands of other passengers get onboard in late February ... when the ship's staff knew damn well at least two other passengers with coronavirus had just disembarked from a previous voyage -- and at least one of them died as a result.
They go on to allege that PCL had an awful screening process -- claiming that the new group of passengers were only asked to fill out a basic piece of paper stating if they were sick or not. There was no other testing, so claim the Weissbergers. Adding insult to injury, the couple goes on to claim that at least 62 passengers onboard the current cruise were also on the prior infected voyage.
