I doubt all 600 ate the same thing - must be the water.

Norovirus is very pervasive.

One of the most amazing things that exists in what people semi-seriously refer to as the “economy” is that there are individuals who actually borrow money (using a credit card) to go to Haiti.

re: doubting they all have the same thing

FWIW, I was on a cruise ship a few years ago that had enough Norovirus cases so that they took precautions to stop its spread. It's a virus that spreads very easily, and a cruise ship has a real lot of conditions that cause it to spread easily.

Norovirus is airborne in tight quarters (don’t think about it too much).

They could have just stayed home and eaten a goodly amount of Haribo sugar-free gummi bears and experienced the same effect.

Just read the reviews to understand what I mean.

Last night on the news they interviewed a man who had just gotten off the ship.

He said, “it was awful just the same as last time”.

WHAT!!!!! You have been on this ship before and you got sick then and you got on it again?????????

What did you expect to happen? Never mind.......
