Just thinking about being on board the 400-passenger Marco Polo with 150 sick and one dead due to norovirus or checking into Reno's famous Peppermill Resort and Casino to find a wedding party there has norovirus are enough to make you glad your are not there.

The man who died on the Marco Polo is believed to be from Norwich area of England. Like the others on board, the man was "on holiday" when he died. The London Telegraph reports:

The ship is docked in Invergordon, Easter Ross, and NHS Highland said last night that tests were underway to confirm the nature of the outbreak. Some patients are thought to have been taken to hospital in Inverness.

The Marco Polo, operated by Transocean Cruises, sailed from Tilbury docks in London at the weekend and was due to sail around Britain and Ireland over the next week.

Meanwhile, Reno health officials are investigating an apparent norovirus outbreak at the Peppermill that is believed centered around a wedding party that brought about 175 to the hotel casino.
