It was reported that the patient got Moderna COVID-19 shots twice a year since 2021.

The patient had just liked a bad cold that started at night, and it was overwhelming, in her nose and everything but by the end of the day it was just a residual cough. The patient had to stay isolated for the rest of the cruise, but she did not really have any terrible symptoms, and the patient was fine within the 5 days. No treatment medications provided by the reporter. This case was linked to MOD-2025-791542 (Patient Link).
