The latest outbreak on a Viking cruise ship in June sickened more than 100 people.
Forget seasickness — your next cruise ship could be plagued by the norovirus, a contagious stomach bug the CDC says is making a resurgence on cruise lines this summer.
Since early January, nearly 1,700 people across several cruises have come down with the illness. Dr. Shivanjali Shankaran, an infectious disease expert at Rush University, says the outbreaks could be a symptom of so-called"revenge travel," a term used to describe the desire to travel after lost time during the pandemic
In a statement, Celebrity Cruises told Scripps News, they implemented"rigorous safety and cleaning procedures" after the most recent outbreak in May, but they did not give more specifics or share what caused people to get sick.
