 CDC’s
Vessel Sanitation Program (VSP) protects passenger and crew
health by minimizing the risk of gastrointestinal illness aboard
cruise ships. VSP accomplishes this mission through sanitation
inspections, disease surveillance and investigations, onsite
inspections of new ship construction and renovation and
reviewing construction plans for new ships. VSP also trains crew
in proper public health techniques including food handling and
preparation, drinkable water system management, and pool and spa
operation and maintenance.
VSP posts
inspection scores and outbreak information on the VSP Website.
This dynamic program continues to meet the needs of public
health.
