My Sister and BIL went on a holiday to America in around August/October of 2019. While they were not in America long, the trip included a cruise from Los Angeles back to Australia. The cruise went to Hawaii then stopped at Tahiti, Bora Bora, Papeete etc. but when they got to Samoa, my BIL was very ill with flu like symptoms as well as 1/2 the ship. They went to the hospital and were given meds and they considered getting off in NZ and flying home but felt it better to stay onboard until it reached their port of Brisbane in Australia. By now, my sister was ill and many did get off in NZ. When they landed they were taken directly to hospital and spent a week there. I rang my sister after her birthday knowing they were en route home - I thought - and no answer, even their mobile. I finally got in touch and I didn’t recognise her voice. She explained a bit of what happened and I said I would call her in a couple of days and to rest. If you wanted to spread any virus, a cruise ship would be the ideal location.

We got it too from a cruise back in January 2019. We think it was more of a response to 5g more than anything.
