An Oldendorff Carriers baby capesize bulker anchored off the world’s largest iron export terminal has become the latest vessel to suffer an outbreak of Covid-19.
The German bulker operator said 17 crew members had tested positive on the 115,000-dwt Patricia Oldendorff (built 2010) at Port Hedland in Western Australia on Monday.
"We are very concerned about the health and well-being of our crew and those caring for them," the company said.
