Tokyo: One more Indian aboard a quarantined cruise ship off Japan was tested positive for the novel coronavirus and shifted to hospital, taking the number of Indian nationals infected with the virus on the vessel to seven, according to the Indian Embassy on Wednesday.

Among the 3,711 passengers and crew, 621 people were found to be infected with the new coronavirus as of Wednesday. On Tuesday, 88 people tested positive and a day earlier 99 others were found to have been infected.

In a tweet, the Indian Embassy here said, "1 Indian crew who tested positive for COVID19 among 88 new cases on Diamond Princess shifted to hospital for treatment." Earlier, six Indians were tested positive for COVID-19.

Not just humans but animals too need protection from the deadly coronavirus (COVID-19) and images of cats wearing face masks in China went viral online, triggering people to share more such images of their pet animals wearing masks.

"Cat in China wearing masks for protection against the coronavirus," posted a user on Twitter.

This led to a barrage of such images coming online from various pet owners in China, with their felines sporting makeshift masks to ward off the deadly coronavirus.

"Poor poor baby. I feel for the pets in China. They are being treated worse than humans of China," commented a user. Another wrote: "It just made my day.. At least some people are still ''human'' being..." One more Indian aboard a quarantined cruise ship off Japan was tested positive for the novel coronavirus and shifted to hospital, taking the number of Indian nationals infected with the virus on the vessel to seven, according to the Indian Embassy on Wednesday.
