The CDC cannot stop a cruise ship, with no passengers onboard, from leaving a US port and sailing to another country. However, the USPH is tasked with prevention of introduction of infectious diseases into the US, so they can deny any ship, cruise or otherwise, from entering US waters, or require a quarantine for the ship. The CDC is tasked with safekeeping the health of US citizens within the US, so they can deny a ship from embarking passengers if there is a perceived health risk. And the USCG has jurisdiction over all navigable waters in the US, and the order states that operations require USCG approval, with agreement from HHS/CDC. The key words are a perceived risk that could be anything so if a cruise ship comes back to a US port and there are no passengers or crew that show flu like symptoms and just because it is a perceived risk that someone may be sick the ship can be denied entry to that US port.

The post I was answering asked whether the CDC had the authority to stop cruise ships from entering port, or whether they were merely advisory. My answer is that it is really up to the USCG, USPH, and CBP to determine whether a ship is cleared to enter a port. But, they take the CDC's recommendations into consideration when doing so. The CDC sets the requirements for disease control, and the USPH is primarily responsible for implementing these requirements on foreign vessels, and then CBP has health and sanitation experts, and all feed to the USCG as the final arbiter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your a better person than I am, I try not to think about what you mentioned other than just being with my family. Ive worked throughout this entire thing plus extra. My family hasn't contracted anything yet. So if we can cruise we will. If I'm forced to quarantine for two weeks when we return so be it. I have the time to burn so its really no big issue, I'll count it as another vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger88 Posted April 25, 2020 #167 Share Posted April 25, 2020 100 day "no sail order" has been announced like over a month ago. So, there should be something around 50-60 days left unless they announced another 100 days of "of no sail". I suppose the reason to it is the increase of the number of infected people and the economy status being able to hold off another 1-2 months of work-free state..

It was around April 15 when it was amended to the new 100 days. July 24th is when it is suppose to end now. Maybe it will end earlier, maybe not.

It's like time is in slow motion waiting on cruises to start. I cheer every little opening of a business nationwide and think ok that much closer. Feels like we have been shut down at least 3 months even if we havent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the reason the cruise industry is being singled out in my opinion is because there have been several ships that have had COVID-19 breakouts to include multiple deaths. On the other hand I have not heard of one person dying from this virus while physically on an airplane, train, bus, subway, etc. I think it is safe to say the chances of this virus spreading are significantly higher when people spend days to weeks together on a cruise ship, as opposed to spending minutes to hours together on other means of transportation. Not trying to start crap but if only long exposure highly contributed to the virus then we would still be shopping and going to dinner etc... That being said I am an essential worker so to speak as I am a vendor for major grocery stores in the east and am in constant close quarters with all the shoppers even with one way aisles, masks etc.. And fortunately for me I do not feel high risk for contracting the virus either on a ship plane or cruise just my opinion. And by the way I wear a mask all day and do not go outside of my yard anytime that I am not working we are all practicing social distancing with our family and friends until this is lifted thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BlerkOne Posted April 25, 2020 #171 Share Posted April 25, 2020 People die on cruise ships all the time. What isn't reported is how many deaths in recent months were because of Covid 19? Perhaps it was something else like a heart attack. People haven't all of a sudden started dying on cruise ships. The reports I have seen say the virus is highly contagious. You wouldn't need to be in contact with an infected person very long to be infected. There is an incubation period, so I wouldn't expect someone to be exposed on a plane and to die during the flight. As even health care workers have died from the virus, no amount of protective gear may be sufficient when used by amateurs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be happy when we can start doing simple things in life like having friends over or going to friends houses, go out to eat at a restaurant, go to the beach, etc. My wife and I have been complying with both local and statewide guidance concerning this virus, but it is getting old fast spending most days basically staying inside or around our house every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some deaths have always occurred on cruise ships. What would be more interesting and credible would be total deaths vs deaths from coronavirus. I don't see many (any?) articles mentioning Costa Deliziosa which started the cruise in Jan, 2020. A cruise ship might well have been the safest place to be. https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/costa-deliziosa-last-cruise-ship-what-happened/index.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't answer your immediate question but it is tangentially related. It's statistical analysis I've been looking for since this pandemic started. Basically the article compares various countries and some cities HISTORICAL death rates for this particular timeframe of the year vs. what the REPORTED death rates are currently with the virus. As a Business Analyst professional I was always curious how the reported death rates due to Covid-19 compare to how many people NORMALLY die during the same period. This kind of data would also answer some Covid-19 deniers saying the deaths reported are people that would have died if the virus wasn't here. The data show if anything the deaths attributed to Covid-19 are UNDERREPORTED, not overreported. In other words if you look at the historical average for this time period and you add in the reported Covid-19 deaths the number of total deaths in 2020 does not add up - there is currently a gap of unassociated deaths vs the historical average. Bottom line C0vid-19 is real, the deaths are not bogus, and there are way, way more deaths this year in every country than what is normal. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/04/21/world/coronavirus-missing-deaths.html?referringSource=articleShare&fbclid=IwAR1ZGshWmiBQ2PcBx4tuv0EcxLe1VJwg2PxvQIOzBxEy6ArDG95ti4n4M7s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
