Two Cruise Ship Visitors Taken To Hospital
Two visitors who came to Bermuda aboard the cruise ship Norwegian Breakaway were taken to hospital on Wednesday [July 30] for unrelated health concerns, with Bermuda Radio receiving a call for assistance and ambulances being subsequently dispatched.
A Bermuda Maritime Operations Center spokesperson said, “On Wednesday, July 30, at 8.38pm, Bermuda Radio received a VHF call from the cruise ship Norwegian Breakaway, berthed at Heritage Wharf in Dockyard.
“The ship requested an ambulance for two persons: a 60-year-old-male with very high blood pressure, and a 36-year-old female suffering from dizziness.
“Bermuda Radio called Fire Dispatch, who confirmed they already had received the request via the ship’s agent.”

This is why we need a well appointed medical clinic at Dockyard or upgraded facility at the West End.
Maybe the OBA or Premier Dunkley could allow a private facility to operate out there!
One should never be taken to a “clinic”.
Hospitals are where people should be taken for evaluation and treatment.
‘Clinic’….Something seriously wrong here could overdose, infection, trauma from a fall/wound, heart attack…..why was this person not taken to a/the hospital……………
Rum all around.
Title and statement mentioned the 2 were taken to the hospital.
The winds were out of the South South East….lets hope it’s not the contaminated sewage from the ocean….any warnings signs the day of the Beach Fest?
