wowzz Posted February 13, 2021 #52 Share Posted February 13, 2021 As a matter of interest, the WHO now says that it is better if the second injection is delayed until 12 weeks after the first one. The longer the wait after the first injection, the more efficacious is the second. So, don't rush to have your second injection, and certainly don't have one only three weeks after the first one.

Marelaine Posted February 13, 2021 #54 Share Posted February 13, 2021 YES! I will get vaccinated as soon as I'm eligible. I hope vaccines will be required. We will also wear masks if required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreaminofcruisin Posted February 13, 2021 #55 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I already answered Yes and then I thought about one concern. We have a family cruise planned for February 2022---rescheduled from this week actually 😢 The grandkids are coming and will be 5 and 2 by then. From what I have read, it is doubtful that they will even study those under 6, let alone vaccinate them. Do you think it would be possible for under 6s to be an exception? It seems like the odds are they would get it from adults more likely than adults would get it from them due to viral loads and all that....

And here’s a great example of why I’d like vaccines to be required for everyone who can medically get one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBill64 Posted February 13, 2021 #60 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yes, I will cruise if vaccines are required and yes I will cruise if they are not required. I just want to cruise again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icat2000 Posted February 13, 2021 #61 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yes for Vaccine. No for mandatory masks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiotAct Posted February 13, 2021 #62 Share Posted February 13, 2021 2 hours ago, JimmyVWine said: I am in agreement...for now. If masks are required, that means that the overall cruise atmosphere will be altered too drastically for me to want partake. But if masks become the norm and stay that way for several years, I suppose I might break down and join in. I doubt that will come to pass, you haven’t been playing close attention to the government’s messaging, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenosha Cruiser Posted February 13, 2021 #63 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yes! The vaccine should be mandatory when boarding a ship. My wife and I just got our second dose of the Pfizer vaccine yesterday. Make sure you save your CDC vaccine card. Ours has the dates the vaccine was administered, the Pfizer batch number and was signed by a health professional at the hospital. At least the card is a start to some kind of proof to show the cruise line. Cheers - Ken & Darlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memoak Posted February 13, 2021 #66 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Hell yes. Dr Fauci said today that mask wearing will go for months not years. Good news 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmalino Posted February 13, 2021 #67 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yes! I am hoping to get vaccinated as soon as I can. I am also strongly suggesting to my kids to get vaccinated when they can (they are 22 and 21, and the oldest is grown and flown and the younger one grown and almost flown, so I can't really require them to get vaccinated) especially if they want to cruise with us in January 2022 (fingers crossed).

casofilia Posted February 13, 2021 #70 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Yes; but we have a problem in New Zealand; Covid 2022 may well be here before we get a vaccination for Covid 2019!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is for the Oxford vaccine. We don't have that one yet in the US. In the US I would follow the recomended intervals for the two vaccines we have. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebr.cruiser Posted February 13, 2021 #73 Share Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) Absolutely yes. I had Covid in November; Even at 75 it was a mild case; if not for this virus going around I would have thought I had a mild sinus infection. My husband was much sicker, like a really, really bad cold with some chest issues, but he recovered well too. I got my first shot yesterday; hubby couldn't as he had his 2nd shingle shot a week ago.

I don’t think that there is anything yet suggesting that masks will be required in 2023 and beyond. My point is that if masks are in fact required in 2023, I will refrain from taking a cruise. If they are still required in 2025, I would take another look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
