RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL: Officials say 340 people have been stricken with a mysterious sickness on a cruise ship in northeastern Brazil.
A spokeswoman with Brazil's National Agency for Sanitary Vigilance says the victims are suffering severe diarrhea and vomiting. She spoke today on condition of anonymity, in line with department policy.
The agency is investigating what caused the unknown illness on the MSC Sinfonia, now docked in Salvador, Bahia.
The vessel is owned by MSC Cruises, a division of the Geneva-based Mediterranean Shipping Co.
An MSC Cruises spokeswoman in Sao Paulo declined to provide details.
The Sinfonia left Rio de Janeiro on Friday with 2,000 passengers, mostly Brazilians.
