Sounds like the Diamond Princess Cruise Ship in Feb. 2000 when Covid broke out.
The course was more bad hygeine than anything else.
Probably the same here, start with the crew and their toilet habits.
I hope they brought extra toilet paper onboard.

Per the above...
“...This is the first AIDA Cruises outbreak in 2025, but the 16th norovirus outbreak overall...”
Ick.
The whole ship had bad hygiene?
Contact infection of infectious disease onboard a cruise ship
Really big ICK...
Where did they get their Crew ? LOL
At least I had the lasagna.
56 cruises without any virus.
“Luxury cruise”, as opposed to “basic utility cruise”?
Best period for cruises was from Sept 2021 to end of 2022 when my wife and I did half a dozen cruises all reduced to 50% off regular fare and EXTRA Hygiene practices on ship. Such as even in buffet no one could touch the food. It was served by a plastic gloved worker behind the counter. No moro-virus or covid breakouts. Masks were required in all public areas.
Chicken or the egg
Swab the deck with Clorox
Do they care?
Never been on a cruise; don’t think I will.
“Where did they get their Crew ?”
Somalia.
“Never been on a cruise; donโt think I will.”

It’ll be fun, they said.

Shoulda booked the three-hour tour.
My wife and I just had this last week. And we are on tierra firma. Not fun.
Four cruises, no illness for me.
I told my wife I’d never go on a cruise ship. You want to go fine but I’ll fly to wherever it is headed and meet you there.
