JeffElizabeth Posted August 3, 2020 #26 Share Posted August 3, 2020 It made sense the way they were doing it. Not a lot of ports, just up to the Arctic. But garbage in, garbage out? Looks like the crew was already infected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if the cruise industry does not find a way to adequately deal with it, the cruise industry as we know it will be "toast". Yup. No argument there. Be well.

JazzyV Posted August 4, 2020 #30 Share Posted August 4, 2020 The number of passengers on MS Roald Amundsen who have tested positive for coronavirus has reached 43, apparently.

igraf Posted August 4, 2020 #31 Share Posted August 4, 2020 The only way to have a safe cruise right now is by only allowing COVID survivors on board. This includes crew and passengers. Later on, those who have been vaccinated would also be allowed. igraf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read nothing that assures me that having survived the virus once means that you will not get it again and be a carrier of that virus. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody on the ship has to be a survivor or vaccinated. That is, everybody will have resistance to COVID. There will be no one who will get sick with COVID even if it is present. The good news is that there is a rapidly growing resistant customer base! Seriously, elderly people with no resistance to COVID should not be allowed on a cruise ship. igraf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, thats even more serious than we originally heard. Sounds like they took a page from Princess in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using a broad definition of corruption, what Hurtigruten tried to do for their business is the much the same as what we Ohioans have seen in recent days involving the very recently removed Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives did for his "corporate friends".
