Norovirus is a group of viruses that cause stomach flu symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting and stomach cramps, according to the CDC. The illness usually lasts one to two days without any long-term health effects |
Coronavirus: 1,800 cruisers held after 3 test positive. The Dream World, carrying 1,800 passengers and crew, is the third cruise ship to be quarantined in the last week. Ten Princess passengers also tested positive. Source 8z.
Quarantine on cruise ship resulted in more Corona patients. Diamond Princess was quarantined for over two weeks resulting in more coronavirus infected passengers than if they would have disembarked immediately. Rather the opposite to what was intended. Source 3s.
