According to reports, the crew members boarding this ship had been quarantining in Recife, Pernambuco. The boarding was scheduled through Salvador, and the employees had to travel to Bahia by chartered bus. It was at that moment that the “alleged contamination” occurred.

Another point reported is that contracted service providers are boarding the ships without undergoing tests and without fulfilling quarantine, increasing the risk of COVID-19 transmission among the offshore workers.
