Hi Ann

The last I heard is that there were 30 people infected so thats about 1.5% to be denied landing in New York it has to reach 15%.

I understand the lido buffet is closed, but other than that it seems to be business as usual. I don't think you have anything to worry about, but if i hear anything else I will let you know.

I was on Queen Victoria in November (for the first time) and fell in love with her.

Good news, Queen Victoria has arrived in New York

This is truly the season for Noro and it's effects on cruiseships, schools, etc..

Where ever people gather, there is a chance.

Working in a Medical Center, we are well informed and instructed what to
use and how often to keep our hand especially clean with alcohol baeed
hand cleans.
