Over 1,700 people are confined on a cruise ship in Bordeaux, France, after a passenger died and others showed symptoms of a suspected gastroenteritis outbreak. The ship, Ambition, had traveled from the Shetland Islands, stopping in Belfast and Liverpool. Health authorities are assessing the situation and have isolated affected passengers. Initial tests ruled out norovirus, but food poisoning remains a possibility. Gastroenteritis outbreaks are uncommon on cruise ships but can occur due to shared dining practices.
