Someone's having a bad vacation!

[Feralpeg]

They just came on the local news to say that a bus carrying 52 people arrived at Celebration Hospital. All 52 people have flu like symptoms. Yuck! I wonder if it isn't food poisoning. I am assuming it is a tour bus. Not a fun way to spend your vacation!

Oh, those poor people? Did it say if they were elderly or from a specific area?

 

[DisneyBlonde]

Wow. Where are they all from?

According to the Orlando Sentinel they're being tested for Swine Flu.

It's being reported that some of them have flu-like symptoms.

ETA:I read about it from my online paper here the Chicago Tribune and came here to find info.

They have updated the store at above link.

"The bus was full of children, chaperones and parents, said Dain Weister, a spokesman for the Orange County Health Department.

One child became ill and tested positive for the flu. The test does not determine whether a patient has swine flu. Later, another child reported feeling ill, so the group went to the hospital, he said."

I hope no one is seriously ill...wonder what hotel the passengers booked?

The group, which had been staying at Disney's Pop Century Hotel, remains in isolation at the hospital.

Sorry it took so long to get back to this. I got caught in a storm at Epcot and had to wait it out.

From what I heard, they didn't want to set out for a 12 hour drive home with a bunch of sick kids. Makes sense to me. They were getting everyone checked out and then heading home. I believe they said they were from Mississippi.

Not a good end to a vacation!
