All too often we read press articles on mass illness and sickness outbreaks at hotels or on cruise ships. As tourism grows it seems this problem arises again and again. When you are the victim of such an outbreak unity and co-ordination with your fellow victims is the key to success in a claim for damages. At Pannone we have the experience to handle the unique challenge this type of case presents.

The cause of a mass illnessor sickness outbreak is often obscure at first. Tourists will notice that when they come down with sickness and diarrhoea others at the same resort or on the same cruise liner are reporting the same symptoms. Regrettably, the holiday company representatives will often raise a smoke screen with a denial that there is a serious problem or a vague reference to an "airborne virus" brought in by a different tourist group. Later investigations usually reveal a bacterial infection from unhygienic pool and water treatment or in the food.

Although this type of infection is usually short lived it can ruin your holiday. For many people their 2 week break is their most eagerly anticipated and expensive event of the year. On their return home many holidaymakers are told that the outbreak was unavoidable by the holiday company and there will be no refund or damages.

The individual tourist does not have the experience or resources to challenge this and only by taking legal action and producing the right microbiological and other evidence can liability be established.

Now and again the consequences of illness outbreaks abroad can be more serious. A small number of individuals will go on to develop long term Irritable Bowel Syndrome or other complications of what is usually a self limiting condition. Some pathogens can produce a more serious illness in all victims such as where there is an outbreak of Legionnaire's disease.
