Suspected cholera: 3,000 people are stuck on ship. At least 14 passengers and one crew member are said to be suffering from diarrhea and vomiting.
The ship left South Africa on February 13th for her journey via Madagascar to Reunion Island and Mauritius. The authorities in Mauritius refused to allow the ship to dock in the port of the capital Port Louis on Sunday, after the French island of La Réunion had previously turned the ship away. The shipping company offers hotlines for its guests to clarify questions about rebooking the further journey home. Stranded people should receive free hotel stays.
