Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76274, member: 636"] Over 100 people got wrecked by norovirus on the AIDAdiva cruise ship during a months-long voyage that started in Hamburg. The CDC confirmed that 95 passengers and six crew members came down with the usual stomach bug symptoms while the vessel made stops across multiple continents on its way back to Germany. The ship operators brought in the CDC's sanitation team to lock down sick passengers, ramp up cleaning protocols, and collect samples for testing. The outbreak hit while the cruise was already past several American ports, and the company is still pushing forward with another world cruise planned for later next year. Cruise ships have reported 21 norovirus outbreaks this year alone, which shows these floating hotels keep struggling with contagious illnesses when they pack thousands of people together for extended trips.
