As opposed to the sane evaluation that a ship - civilian or military - is essentially a floating Petri dish.

No, he wants there to be something suspicious about people on a boat coming down with a respiratory illness.

People crammed on ships get sick with the same thing pretty frequently...that's why a cruise has never been on my to-do list.

Intense GI distress is something I don't want at all and certainly don't want to share with a ship full of strangers....same goes for hacking, wheezing, might die from URIs.

Don't remember any plague-like situations when I was active duty. Have to look that up.

The (acting) sec of the navy resigned in disgrace after flying out to the plague ship at taxpayer expense to tell the crew to stop loving their stupid captain who tried to save their lives, and his speech aboard the vessel found it's way to the media.

They tried to stop that from happening, and failed.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
