The Jamaican workers were repatriated aboard Royal Caribbean's Adventures of the Seas cruise ship, which remains docked at the port.
Minister without Portfolio in the Ministry of National Security, Mathew Samuda, says the Jamaicans were allowed to disembark in trances of 40 and 20 and were subjected to health and safety screening including being tested for COVID-19.
