So, if this is accurate, a big whopping ten people will be swamping the local hospitals?????? It drives me crazy that cruise ships are assumed to be totally infected while planes are still arriving in FLL. The other day, I opened the webcam and the only thing I saw moving was a plane on its final approach. I hope the quarantine-bus system will work to get "healthy" passengers on their way. You are welcome. The concern as I understand it is that the so called "healthy" passengers, i.e., asymptomatic, may actually be carriers of COVID also. According to Dr. Fauci about 25% of infected people are asymptomatic so if he is correct dispersing people to fly "home" will create further problems at their destinations. I hope the "healthy" are asked to quarantine at home. Edited April 2, 2020 by bluesea321 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonacruiser25 Posted April 2, 2020 #2016 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I read that healthy passengers will be bused to airports for flights home. Hopefully this will be a controlled event with significant testing. We all want everyone to get home and be safe. I am praying that all is being done to keep the port workers, bus drivers, airport personnel and flight crews remain safe. This is critical to prevent further spread of the virus! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there has been a plan by HAL - it was presented for about two hours by a representative from Carnival at the Broward County Commission meeting on Tuesday. But grandstanding and details have delayed docking needlessly. I hope there are not any more deaths on board while we wait to make sure Florida is not impacted by healthy cruises returning home and "less than ten people" in need of medical assistance. I will post a link to that meeting (again). Edited April 2, 2020 by sansterre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the "healthy" are asked to quarantine at home. People are still flying and being asked to isolate after they get home. Cruise passengers can do the same. And wherever they're going, the virus is already there. The biggest problem with spreading the virus is the people who do not comply with requests/orders to isolate. People are still having social gatherings despite the social distancing guidelines. NJ police have broken up several parties and closed non-essential businesses. NYC had to close all playgrounds because people were still gathering to play basketball, etc. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the ships start in Florida & head to other Countries They have many Americans/Canadians/Brits/Australians onboard just because embarkation was in SA does not mean they are all from SA The continuation of the Zaandam cruise from Buenos Aires to San Antonio, Chile was a cruise from San Antonio to Ft. Lauderdale, scheduled to arrive in FLL on April 7. The Rotterdam was originally on a Panama Canal cruise headed to Ft. Lauderdale, scheduled to arrive 3/27, which ended in Puerto Vallarta instead. I took those back to back cruises on the Zaandam last year and there were people from 34 countries on board, very few from South America. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
