The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that more than two dozen people on board a cruise ship fell ill due to a gastrointestinal outbreak.
At least 29 passengers and crew on the Silversea Cruises’ Silver Nova were sickened with an “unknown” sickness, representing about 5 percent of the passengers, the CDC said in an update earlier this week. About 1,100 passengers and crew members were on board the vessel.
