Passengers have been disembarking from the coronavirus-hit cruise ship Diamond Princess. Nine-hundred and seventy people had left the vessel at its port in Yokohama near Tokyo in the 3 days through Friday. About 300 passengers and 1,000 crew members remain on board.

A 14-day quarantine period imposed by health authorities ended on Wednesday. People with no symptoms and who test negative for the virus have been permitted to leave.
