More than 90 people have been reported ill on board a Royal Caribbean ship sailing out of Tampa, Florida, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
An outbreak of an unknown illness with primary symptoms of diarrhea and vomiting has stricken 89 of 2,164 passengers as well as two of 910 crew on board the Radiance of the Seas, according to a report on the CDC’s Vessel Sanitation Program website.
The ship that departed the Port of Tampa on Feb. 1 is returning to the port on Saturday morning to complete a seven-night Caribbean cruise.
The outbreak could be determined to be norovirus, a common gastrointestinal bug that the CDC tracks aboard cruise ships.
Norovirus has already been blamed in 2025 for outbreaks aboard Princess Cruises’ Coral Princess, the Viking Mars of Viking Ocean Cruises and Holland America Line’s Volendam.
