More than 300 people on one of Princess Cruises' ships fell ill and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, CDC says

More than 300 people on board one of Princess Cruises' ships fell ill and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

The CDC said 284 passengers — out of a total of 2,881 — reported feeling unwell during the trip. That equated to nearly 10% of all passengers on the cruise.Princess said it immediately went through the sanitization procedures to prevent the spread of the virus, including disinfecting door handles, elevator buttons, and railings.

Crew members also collected passengers' stool samples to send to a laboratory for pathogenic identification, the CDC said.
