Ship where nearly 700 fell ill being sanitized

Passengers wave from the Explorer of the Seas cruise ship as it docks at a berth in Bayonne, N.J., Wednesday, Jan. 29, 2014. The number of passengers and crew reported stricken ill on the cruise ship has risen to nearly 700. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday its latest count puts the number of those sickened aboard the Explorer of the Seas at 630 passengers and 54 crew members. (AP Photo/Mel Evans) BAYONNE, N.J. (AP) — Kim Waite was especially disappointed to fall ill while treating herself to a Caribbean cruise after completing cancer treatment.
