RWolver672 Posted May 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Can you imagine planning for months to go on a cruise and then have this happen. I wonder what will happen when they get back to the US. http://www.tampabay.com/news/cruise-ship-with-measles-case-quarantined-scientology-has-a-ship-like-it-20190501/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSHLOT Posted May 2, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Owned by the "Church of scientology" ? That in itself sounds a little sketchy. That is not your normal cruiseline. Probably never got vaccinated, which seems to be the theme when over 80% of measles victims never got the shots. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it's not your normal cruise line but it could very well happen on any cruise line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judycruiser Posted May 2, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Ship is the Freewinds owned by Church of Scientology. She is the former Boheme. Normally, she is docked in Aruba. She's the tiny old ship next to the newer ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theosprey247 Posted May 2, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Sounds like they need some more auditing. $$$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted May 2, 2019 #6 Share Posted May 2, 2019 She usually moves among Cartagena, Aruba, and Curacao. Didn't think she went as far east as St. Lucia. She never visits the US. Probably couldn't pass a Coast Guard inspection. Also rumored to be full of asbestos. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judycruiser Posted May 2, 2019 #7 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Glad to know that about her itinerary; always wondered where she was when not in Aruba. Sure had good times on her as Boheme in 1979 and 1980. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda impressed it hasn't gotten onto a regular cruise ship yet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare whogo Posted May 2, 2019 #10 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Crew on mainline cruise ships sign contracts maybe 3 to nine months long. Scientologists sign a billion year contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare brillohead Posted May 3, 2019 #11 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Pretty sure that the real cruise lines (this ship isn't actually a "cruise ship") require vaccinations of all their employees as a condition of their employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALWAYS CRUZIN Posted May 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted May 3, 2019 The regular large cruise lines in most cases disinfect there ships constantly and are constantly asking all to disinfect and wash there hands. many now require you to wash your hand before entering the buffet and also supply disinfectant as you walk into any dining area. They do not want you to get sick nor do they. However stubborn passengers are always there. I see many just walking by the sinks and the people giving disinfectant. I also see those at the entrance telling people to wash there hands and will not let them into the buffet unless they do. Some get real mad. To bad. Wash you hands. A buffet is a place were there are problems no matter what you do. I have seen children even grown ups pick there nose, pick there teeth and then reach out and take, with there hands, something off of the buffet. However, no passenger knows what goes on in the kitchens on the ship either. You just take precautions if you do not want to get sick. We take wipes and do a cleaning in our state room before we unpack. At the elevators. I use my knuckle not the index finger.You never know do you? Be safe better than being sorry.
