On February 13, 2020, UNMC/Nebraska Medicine received 13 Americans from the Diamond Princess cruise ship. Two additional passengers were later transferred to the medical center campus and united with their spouses in quarantine. Of the 15 passengers, 13 tested positive for COVID-19. The patients were primarily housed at the National Quarantine Unit on campus, but some were housed in the NBU to receive more intensive care. All patients were released by mid-March after testing negative.
