A bride and groom say they and more than 30 wedding guests become ill with norovirus after a reception at a Brooklyn hotel, according to a lawsuit reported by multiple outlets. The couple claim the illness is linked to food served at the wedding and allege that contaminated items caused the outbreak.
The reports describe the matter as involving days of illness for the couple and widespread symptoms among attendees. The Independent says a hotel spokesperson acknowledges staff retraining after the incident but argues that norovirus was already circulating widely in New York that winter. PerthNow similarly describes the case as a legal dispute over the hotel’s role in the alleged contamination.
While both outlets focus on the alleged link between the wedding meal and guest illnesses, they differ in emphasis: PerthNow concentrates on the number of guests affected and the couple’s pursuit of legal action, while The Independent includes the hotel’s response and its broader explanation for the outbreak.
