A class action filed Wednesday alleges Carnival Corp.’s top executives misled investors about its safety protocols relating to COVID-19 on board its cruise ships, its role in spreading the virus and its violations of port-of-call regulations.

The suit, filed in Florida federal court by Service Lamp Corp. Profit Sharing Plan, is the first shareholder case against Carnival, which faces dozens of other lawsuits brought by passengers and their families, alleging emotional distress, medical expenses and wrongful death caused by COVID-19 exposure on several of its cruise voyages.
