Please, just require passengers to be vaccinated so we can get back to sea.

Maybe they could go out on a limb and just say if you are vaccinated you don't have to wear a mask anywhere anymore even if the magic 100 days have not been reached yet.  Telling people they can do things they are already doing such as going outside without a mask is not really an incentive.

Heck some will do it for a donut.  Krispy Kreme is offering a free glazed donut with proof of vaccination.  Uber and Lyft are offering free rides to and from vaccination sites and Office Depot and Office Max are offering free lamination of CDC cards.  What more do they want?  LOL

 

College brain washing educators I mean professors could even offer extra credit on exams LOL

Actually, Sam Adams and Budweiser are giving away free beer to anyone over 21 with proof of vaccination:

If that is the case it is pointless to do anything. Such people are going to do whatever they want regardless of carrots or sticks.

Really, I didn't think Florida regularly had days over 110, now humidity is another issue 😀

Is that degrees? Central Florida barely reaches 98 degrees in the middle of the day in the middle of the summer.

Because some of them are still in application uniformly in places where it doesn't make sense. When we were in Key West last month, we were supposed to be masked up even while on the streets. I thought the scientists said being outside it wasn't necessary. Now I've answered your question, please do me the courtesy of answering mine: If the CDC says that vaccinated people don't need to wear masks around each other, do you think it would be stupid for local ordinances to require them even then?

 

And yet, cruise lines that require vaccine also require mask everywhere except while ACTIVELY eating. Chance of falling over in the ocean are greater, but we are not supposed to be chained to railings. I wonder why not? What a foolish world we live in these days. It is absolutely pointless to discuss anything... Anything since... around 6 years ago.

Yes, I agree... like allowing to eat a (grilled) sausage (ha!!!) specifically on July 4 of this year... on your own backyard... and even that is an official big maybe as of 2 days ago.

How many cruise lines that require vaccines also require strict mask policies?  None of them have even sailed yet.

The other side of the coin, I have a brother, 5 years younger, with the same birthday.  I didn’t have to leave the house to run into someone with same birthday.

I knew that was where Nostradamus was coming up with his so-called July 23, (any year) prediction about cruising.

Not quite the same but I had 2 very close friends in my childhood.

One celebrated his birthday of July 18,one on July 20 and me on July 24.

We celebrated our birthdays every year.

We should all contribute to a fund to buy you a special cruise on that day, as a treat. ☺️
