The Future of Cruise Ship Food and Dining | Eater
"One of the earliest and most widely publicized onboard COVID-19 outbreaks, this ship saw hundreds of infections (712 reported), 14 deaths, and thousands of passengers quarantined for weeks, illustrating both the virus's contagiousness and the vulnerabilities of crowded shipboard life. With nearly 4,000 people aboard — more than a quarter of them crew — and confined spaces under 1,000 feet long, the environment helped rapid spread; three-quarters of infected crew members were food-service workers, a fact that highlighted lapses in worker safety as well as guest risk during the crisis." - Naomi Tomky
