This illness is on the 19 day transatlantic crossing and has affected 556 passengers and 154 crew members, not all at once. As a result the Nov. 19th sailing will leave 2 days late so they can disinfect the ship. sue |

It starts with a sore throat and a cough that won't quit. It is all over, at the university and lab, Mike says everyone is coughing. No fever or other symptoms...it's just that pesky cough that won't go away. Your throat stays irritated from all the coughing. Maybe now, Carnival will put up sanitizing stations at buffet and dining room entrances. When I asked why they were not present on the Conquest, I was told they thought hand washing was more effective...Sure, but how do you get to get everyone to wash their hands? Some people are more likely to use the sanitizing agent if it is right at the entrance than wash their hands. That sure is a long voyage to take while being ill or being around others who are ill. --Jean |

They also had someone at every entrance that would ask you to use the hand sanitizers and also handed out wipes. Thankfully we had no noro outbreaks on our cruise.

Makes sense, almost like, why didn't I think of that? |

With many of these ships having health problems and sick passengers, you would think that the cruise business would really suffer financially. On the other hand, I read recently that the cruise business is still doing very well financially and doesn't seem to be harmed at all. Why? Any idea? JP "F." wrote in message ...
