These outbreaks on recent cruise ship voyages can result in GI symptoms that include nausea and internal disorders. "Unless it's in a product (water or food) supplied to guests, we can stop the cross-contamination, or at least greatly reduce the number of germs, with a combination of cleaning and application of Sporicidin®," Warren Pizik, owner, Swisher SE Florida (Broward, Palm Beach, Martin and St. Lucie counties) told CM e-News Daily/CMM Online Tuesday. 12/10/2002
