Additional information: All food handlers did not wear gloves and transferred food from the containers to the buffet displays and arranged it all by hand without gloves. UPDATE 08/09: I went to Xcaret Hotel in Mexico, July 1 for 13 days.. I noticed VERY poor food handling (no gloves.. lots of people handling food no gloves) On the 10th of July, I started having diarrhea, sore muscles, feverish, a cough, feeling terrible,. When I got home, my doctor told me I caught COVID-19 at the resort. as incubation was about 7 days. It is now 2023-08-09, feeling much better, BUT still have a nagging cough. This ruined 3-4 days of my vacation at this VERY expensive resort. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Fever, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Chills, Headache
