Celebrity Solstice Norovirus question?????????

[fred111]

On the Solstice right now. No Noro problems and one of the best cruises we have ever taken. Great ship, great crew, super food.

that's good to hear - we are on Solstice 29 March 2018 out of Sydney and hope the Norovirus issue is well and truly gone by then!

 

The virus does not live forever on a ship! It is originated and spread by people. And as it is brought on board and by already infected people it could be gone, back, gone, and back again by then! The ship - any ship - will be thoroughly cleaned as well be then, as it would be after each instance of an issue.

 

You do realize that you have just as much a likelihood as contracting it at a mall, movie theater, school building, restaurant, etc., on land. Anywhere where there is a concentration of people where someone may have it can be a source for you to get it as well. A ship only concentrates that group of people for a longer period of time, which is why more preventative measures are typically taken on board a ship.
