Good morning,
I'd like to ask the forum a question:
Which is the best place to perform an inspection in case there is a suspected case of Ebola on board a ship: anchored or docked? If we consider the whole ship as affected, inspectors should wear their PPE when accessing the ship. If the ship is anchored this is really difficult and could be dangerous for them. Otherwise, if you decide to let the ship enter the port, the same problem could happen with the pilots and they could refuse to access the ship and move it into the port.
