...washing your hands and keeping your hands/fingers away from your face/eyes. We have cruised 20 something times and never caught anything..and once on a ship that was so call "infected"
The big reason you hear about it on ships is that the guests stay there a week, or so. If they get infected on day one, by day two or three, they are still on the ship. You can also catch it from being on an airplane for 2 hours, many folks may show symptoms the next day after flying, yet they are now all over the country...hard to make a newsworthy point of where it started.
