Beschreibung
Days before the world shut down in March, 2020, the cruise ship Zaandam, owned by Holland America, was preparing to sail from Buenos Aires, Argentina, loaded with 1,200 passengers, plus 600 crew. Cabin Fever takes readers behind the scenes of the ship's complex workings, and below decks into the personal lives of passengers and crew who were caught unprepared for the ordeal that lay ahead. The harrowing journey of a cruise ship at the dawn of a pandemic.
