Subject: [Travelandtourism] Princess Cruise Lines - Norovirus on the
returning trip into Miami



Dated January 4, 2012
92 Passengers and 13 Crew Members had is what is Norovirus when they
returned from there cruise.
You may hear about this about cruise lines, do you know what Norovirus is.
It is a stomach virus, it doesn't come from the food that they cook or from
your staterooms not being cleaned properly.  Far from it.
It is from one person coming on a ship already slightly ill weather it being
a cough or sneezing and then doesn't wash there hands, and then touch food.
On all cruise ships, they have what we call washy, washy girls, Nelson had a
interview with one of the girls on the last cruise we went on in November. I
will try and send this to Peter Donahue to put on the website with Travel
and Tourism, and I will post it on my blog, but it is also on my youtube
page, it is short, but sweet.
Washy, Washy people are all over the ship before you get on the ship, when
you leave the ship, before you go into a restaurant and after, they spray
your hands with anti-bacteria spray, mostly like the sprays you will find at
health and beauty aids, or specialty stores.
I recommend that if you are going to travel whether on a cruise or an
airplane, because airplanes are the worst places to get sick.
Is to bring with you, anti-bacteria wipes or spray.
The cruise ship is delaying the upcoming cruise because they have to clean
and disinfect every area of the ship.
Also, if you are sick prior to going on a trip, remember there are other
people traveling with you, cover your mouth when you sneeze and cough, and
make sure the kids also, it doesn't take that long to wash your hands.
