During Scarlet Lady’s current five-day cruise, just above 3% of passengers experienced symptoms of acute gastroenteritis, commonly referred to as stomach flu.
‘Our medical team isolated these travelers, and we immediately enacted enhanced sanitization procedures including additional cleaning of cabins and high-contact areas around the ship,’ a Virgin Voyages spokesperson said. ‘We are working closely with the CDC and their medical professionals. There is currently no impact to the upcoming voyage’s departure time or ports of call.’
