An Australian couple who were quarantined on a cruise ship following the coronavirus outbreak have gone viral, after getting a much-needed shipment of wine delivered to them via a drone.

Jan and Dave Binskin, from Queensland, have been confined on the Diamond Princess ship off the coast of Tokyo for a week or so, and have been documenting the tedium of the experience on their shared Facebook account.

For instance, earlier this week the couple uploaded a picture of themselves, wearing protective masks, which was captioned: "We are 2 Casino Residents Quarantined on the Diamond Princess in Yokohama Japan now into Day 6 of 14 we are confined to our cabin and get let out every 4/5 days for 1 hour walk on the deck we are well and in good spirits so far would appreciate any local news [sic]"

In China, doors have been welded shut to stop the spread of the virus:
