9 American tourists have died in the last few weeks while on vacation in the Dominican Republic. 

Can't help but think something is up.

I was wondering the same thing.

I heard it was tainted alcohol, at least a possibility.

Definitely seems like Americans are being targeted.

Seems very strange. And, since there are couples who died, sounds like some type of poisoning.

Something isn't right over there.

Serial killer?

Was watching the evening news, the reporter says "and so far there are no connections to any of the deceased." I'm thinking oh yes there are! They are all Americans!

One woman was almost beaten to death, a young couple was robbed and murdered, yes they were Americans.

And the Senior HS students! At least no one died there. But certainly that resort has a rogue employee. All being Americans could just be a coincidence. punta cana resorts were great and popular. But we don't know if other countries have experienced issues with their people going to that resort. News is still coming out.

True, but it is a head scratcher for sure.

There was a time a year or two ago when Canadians were being targeted in parts of Mexico. There was a rather serious travel advisory.

I haven't heard that tig, I hope that is no longer happening. I hope the Dominican Republic finds out who or what is causing all these deaths and arrest / solve the problem. This is going to hurt their economy big time.

They cannot all have been foolish enough to drink tap water, eat uncooked foods, etc. Sounds like something is being "added" to whatever they are eating..... Saw where a plane load of people returning from there were all sick. Goggle News

 I also read a similar story. I think it was college age kids on spring break.

I was told when I went to Jamaica last year to pay attention when they were pouring drinks.

I believe I’ll just stick with Hawaii, Huntington Beach or the North Carolina beaches.

 One incident, the couple found dead, both drank something from the minibar in their room.

 I know it's many incidents. I was only saying their death is being blamed on something from the minibar.

There are a few others linked to the same bar.

 I assume the minibar had been tampered with.

The Dominican Republic health ministry said it is fake news to undermine their tourist industry and the deaths were of natural causes.

 He has been warned that if DR doesn't come clean on the autopsies quick and investigate they will lose a ton of tourist dollars. In the wake of the Natalie Holloway killing in Aruba tourism went down 10%. The DR issue is much worse.

 I agree. DR would be wise to request US medical examiners conduct the autopsies.

Minibar bottles are sealed. I would not drink from a bottle that had been opened.

 I agree, they also need to crack down on the violence against tourist, a young couple was carjacked, robbed, rape and murdered, another tourist was almost beaten to death and left for dead at a 5 star resort.

I saw footage that the mini bar was stocked with full size bottles and somehow dispensed.

They said something about bootleg liquor being in the mini bars, that it might have been somewhat tainted. They've also just added a Canadian case - a DR tourist who died suddenly on vacation before the current ones hit the media. It happened first, so there was nothing to link it to until now.

Today on the radio I heard about a tour group that went there a few months ago and about 40 people got very very sick. Their hotel claims they got sick elsewhere in the DR. Some of the people said they still aren't 100% better.

I think that, not including the Canada, the death toll is up to 10.
