French authorities lift lockdown on norovirus-hit cruise ship

Asymptomatic people allowed off ship from Wednesday afternoon but those infected ordered to remain in isolation

A norovirus-hit cruise ship carrying mainly passengers from the UK and Ireland has had a French lockdown order lifted.

All 1,701 people onboard Ambition were prevented from disembarking for more than 24 hours after it docked in Bordeaux on Tuesday, as one person died and dozens became ill with a vomiting virus.
