Case investigations are ongoing, but at this time a source for the virus has not been identified.

SUMMARY

Abstract:

A Hailsham holiday maker is among 134 claimants in a massive High Court action against cruise giants, Fred Olsen Cruise Lines which could potentially cost the company millions of pounds in compensation. In a joint writ issued at London’s High Court and just made publicly available, the claimants alleged they picked up norovirus.

An alarming number of outbreaks of stomach illness across the state should be a reminder to Iowans participating in gatherings where food is served. With more than a week remaining for holiday and year-end celebrations, the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) is asking sick Iowans to think twice before preparing food for others.
