More than 120 passengers and crew members aboard the Princess Cruises ship Ruby Princess were infected with norovirus during a 20-day round-trip voyage from San Francisco to Canada and Alaska. The outbreak was reported to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Saturday, though not all infected individuals showed symptoms simultaneously or upon arrival or departure from the port. The cruise had 3,032 passengers and 1,144 crew members onboard. Princess Cruises stated that enhanced sanitation protocols were implemented, and the ship will undergo thorough cleaning before its next voyage. Officials noted that seven outbreaks on cruises under CDC jurisdiction have been reported this year, mostly due to norovirus.
