Twelve crew members and 51 out of 73 passengers on a Vietnam Airlines flight from Nagoya in Japan to Ho Chi Minh City were placed in quarantine on fears the carrier’s employees had been exposed earlier to a Japanese traveler with the novel coronavirus.
The Japanese passenger tested positive with the virus after landing at Chubu Centrair International Airport Wednesday with a fever, according to Vietnam’s government website, which cited its health ministry.
