The cruise giant Royal Caribbean has been criticized for not allowing a renowned scientist who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis —also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease—to board its vessel.
He said that despite providing comprehensive documentation about his special needs and booking a disability room, he was questioned when he turned up to board the vessel with his family and two carers. Yerbury said he felt discriminated against due to his condition:"They were rude, they didn't even speak to me or make eye contact. They didn't treat me as a person.”
After the scientist tweeted that he was disgusted with the decision, many took to the social media site to voice their support for him.
