At least two-hundred and nineteen passengers and crew became ill, experiencing vomiting and diarrhea, from a gastrointestinal illness aboard Princess Cruises’ Ruby Princess which has returned this morning to Galveston, Texas following a cruise to the Caribbean.
199 of 2,881 (6.61%) of the passengers reported ill during the cruise, as well as 20 of 1,159 (1.73%) of the crew members on the ship.
... The Centers for Disease Control and Infection (CDC) has not come to a conclusion as to the “causative agent” behind these gastrointestinal illnesses (GI). The CDC data regarding this GI outbreak indicates that “epidemiologists and environmental health officers” are now boarding ship to begin an investigation once the cruise ship is back in a U.S. port.
