This fact didn't stop you before. In my lifetime of 71 years, there has been no illness on board a cruise ship that qualifies as a pathogen that has caused a 100 year global pandemic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh sorry, I didn't realize you were 71. So I guess that means you know everything. The point was your trip can end because of some other pathogen, it happened before covid.

B113 Posted May 28, 2021 #181 Share Posted May 28, 2021 If I'm going to be required to wear a mask after I've had covid and been vaccinated then just refund my money and I well switch to a vaccinated cruise. They have been making interest off everyones money and we should be given an option. Don't throw anything at me at the last minute. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there is a difference between unvaccinated and naturalized immunity. The facts show that the CDC is not giving any guidance whatsoever to those that have already had Covid. But anyway...ou don't have to accomodate anybody when talking bout a cruise. You have choices that you can make. Go on a cruise that offers fully vaxed ships. Go for it!

Masking outdoors too, even at the pool? Why in the world would anyone want THAT experience? Just to let kids cruise? Let them go to Disney World where at least they don't have to wear masks OUTDOORS anymore. This is what the CDC order says - if they meet the 95% threshhold - It's at the cruise line's discretion as to whether or not they require masks if passengers are 95% vaccinated. I would think any given cruise Royal or otherwise could meet the 95% threshhold. Pure speculation on my part, but maybe Royal is hedging their bets by doing test cruises so they're covered either way. I just am curious to see how this all works out if you're required to show proof of vaccination to board a ship in Florida. "Fully Vaccinated Travelers Cruise ship operators, at their discretion, may advise passengers and crew that—if they are fully vaccinated—they may gather or conduct activities outdoors, including engaging in extended meal service or beverage consumption, without wearing a mask. Cruise ship operators, at their discretion, may advise crew who are fully vaccinated that they do not have to wear a mask or maintain physical distance in areas of the ship that are inaccessible to passengers. Cruise ship operators, at their discretion, may designate areas as only accessible to fully vaccinated passengers and crew where masks and physical distancing are not required (e.g., casinos; bars; spas; entertainment venues; and dining areas, including self-serve buff"ets). For ships with at least 95% of crew and 95% of passengers fully vaccinated, cruise ship operators, at their discretion, may advise passengers and crew that they do not have to wear a mask or maintain physical distance in any areas."

I was kind enough to provide a link to the cdc database of covid deaths because I wanted to be sure you understood that your "plenty" of young dead people don't actually exist. So I am skeptical about the accuracy of your information as you have been wrong recently. My use of the word "plenty" could mean 100 or 1000; it all depends on your definition of "plenty". One death of a young person is plenty for me if you get my drift. Also, I would like to make clear that I reference the mRNA vaccines when I make my comments. I have not researched the J&J vaccine at all as myself, my husband and my entire family has been vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine. This is the most recent reporting of data from the CDC..........

I don't think that there is anything positive to be gained from further dissection of this topic, I actually think everything that could be said has been said.

No one, including DeSantis is MAKING anyone go on a cruise. That's the choice of the consumer. Further, the people of Florida via election results, have elected a legislative body that has established a law forbidding any business to discriminate against the citizens of Florida based on covid vaccinations, of which, DeSantis has signed into law. The cruise industry and the CDC have more work to do. What do y'all think the over/under is on the number of days that cruisers continue to whine and complain about the law?

What exactly is your point then? I thought I understood you to question if I feel protected by my vaccine and I also must understand that I will be among un-vaccinated people when I'm out and about in my life. I did address your comments or so I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have guidelines certainly, but I see no guarantees. I didn't say "no chance". I said the chance is miniscule or very low risk. The risk is so low of a vaccinated person transmitting the virus that their new guidelines say that vaccinated people who do not have Covid symptoms, do not have to quarantine or get tested if they have been exposed to a KNOWN Covid positive person. The science data has shown the chance of vaccinated people being able to transmit the virus is extremely low, not impossible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
