Well thankyou for that reply but it still dosent change the fact that my husband contracted hep E and was very ill and it was from the time we were on Carnival Vista around the Mediterranean and I have just found this site and asking if anyone else had anything like this ? On board the Vista.

Just to let you know since you seem to know a lot it was on the Mediterranean and my husband never ate raw shellfish everything he did eat was cooked he did feel sick one of the days but just put it down to the heat it was after we left the ship is when his health started to go down we didn’t know what it was it was the hospital consultant that told him what it was and it took a full week to get all the results which we were very glad after medication he started to improve

Hello my husband got it from eating shellfish and as his liver was failing fast and they done all the tests that they thought was causing it they ask us had we done anything different and we then told them that we were on a cruise they ask did he eat shellfish and my husband replied yes every day and they then knew what to do his blood samples were then sent to kings in London and it was there that it was confirmed hep E if you read it takes a parasite 15-60 days to incubate and that’s is what happened to my husband .

I’m not a member of staff I have all the hospital letters from doctors my husband was very ill from hepatitis E and as for the ? Mark I have only found this site writher it was last year or not I’m going Bly letting you know and asking if anyone else had the same hope that answers your questions?

We traveled on the vista in August 2016 and when we came of the ship my husband began to feel unwell he ended up in hospital with liver failure and it turned out he had contracted hepatitis E from the Carnival vista I’m just wondering if anyone else got sick in August x
