Virus Ship Row as Spain Closes Gibraltar Border

Passengers on the British cruise ship the Aurora were hit by a virus that causes diarrhea and vomiting. The ship, coming from Greece, docked in Gibraltar at the onset of the virus. Spain, fearing a spread of the infection, then closed its borders. The British government describes Spain's decision as "unnecessary and disproportionate." Gibraltar, long a point of contention between Britain and Spain, claims that Spain deliberately delays its citizens at the border. The sick passengers are set to return to England soon enough. But the thorn of Spain's reaction may linger. – YaleGlobal
