Infectious Diseases on Cruise Ships [PDF]
Travel by sea is one of the earliest forms of transportation. From ancient times to the present, people have traveled by ship for purposes of food obtainment, trade of goods, conquest, employment, and leisure. Before ships were built large enough to take long ocean voyages, the most relevant medical problems included drownings, injuries, and attacks by

Norovirus Transmission on Cruise Ship
An outbreak of norovirus gastroenteritis affected passengers on two consecutive cruises of ship X and continued on 4 subsequent cruises despite a 1-week sanitization. We documented transmission by food and person-to-person contact; persistence of virus despite sanitization onboard, including introductions of new strains; and seeding of an outbreak on ...
