More than 150 people on board a Princess cruise ship touring the Caribbean became ill with norovirus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said this week.
The total number of people who fell ill was 153, 104 of whom were passengers and 49 of whom were crew members, the CDC said in a report on the outbreak Thursday.
The vessel, the Star Princess, was on a one-week voyage that ended Sunday, the CDC said. Passengers and crew members were stricken with diarrhea and vomiting, it said.
Princess Cruises reported that additional rounds of cleaning and disinfection were done, ill passengers and crew members were isolated until they could disembark, and staff members consulted with the CDC on best practices for eliminating the highly contagious, long-lasting virus, the agency said.
Princess Cruises did not immediately respond to a request for comment Saturday.
