People said it was there; don't know; couldn't find it. Have a great Sunday. I never found the age restriction on Princess' site either and I strongly doubt it was ever there. What's been removed is the language about chronic severe conditions (not correctly quoted btw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting on a vaccine may mean no cruising for a long time. Look at all the other vaccines that have been talked about. MERS, SARS, H1N1, HIV just to name a few. Yes there are medicines to treat these diseases but so far no vaccine. Can it happen? Yes. Anytime soon? Not likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all foreign registered so they don’t pay US taxes. It does matter where the ship is built. It has to be built in the USA to get documented in the USA. That is flagged in the USA. No shipyards in the USA build large cruise ships. What you brought up has nothing to do with the rumor that was posted regarding health screenings. I do not understand why someone is posting health forms from Celebrity, etc., in a Princess forum Edited April 27, 2020 by brisalta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expat Cruise Posted April 27, 2020 #88 Share Posted April 27, 2020 It will not help. maybe in the United States you cannot get a doctor to sign off....But in places like the Philippines a doctor will sign anything you want. Do you think getting a sign off in China would be hard? I also think many doctors even in the US will sign off, if it is even legal for the cruise lines to ask. You know someone will take this to court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you being facetious about your statement "There is always hydoxycholorquine and disinfectant for those who don't care about others health". Studies have shown that Hydroxychloroquine combined with Azithromycin is very effective in treating Coronavirus. Gov Coumo promotes this treatment and says all of the hospitals in NY city use this as a preferred treatment. A majority of the doctors in the United States prescribes this treatment. The increased use of a disinfectant is used by Cruiseships (always have), Airlines, city buses and most businesses now are being used to stop the spread of the Coronavirus. Disinfectants are the only tool to kill the Coronavirus germs. Cruiselines, Airlines and all businesses using the disinfectants do care about the health of others, contrary to your statement that they "don't care about others health."
