Several have said the cruise prior was infested as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdr69 Posted July 6, 2022 Author #7 Share Posted July 6, 2022 My original post was more a lighthearted poke at the Color Status. In 7 weeks not once have the ships been green even though technically each new sailing should start out Green in reality since every passenger is tested negative to get onboard. To me it seems to be a never ending "investigation" and when i actually saw two yellow ships my first thought was wow someone actually closed one of these "open" investigations. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesorbeth Posted July 6, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 6, 2022 We have only been on 7 cruises but one or both of us have ALWAYS come down with "cruise crud" either the last day or our first day home. It's not any different than a crappy cold. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still haven’t shown where those factual numbers came from. What cleaning and hand washing? They clean every cabin and other surfaces in spite of Covid not being transmitted from surfaces so no problem there. Hand washing is up to individuals and if YOU wash your hands and keep them away from your mouth, you’re good. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that make you feel better? I was told the ship left late on Sunday due to cleaning and a Coast Guard inspection...maybe someone currently onboard can verify.

I and my family caught Covid on a cruise a couple of weeks ago. My wife and I are both vaxxed and double boosted and for us it was definitely worse than any cold or flu and I'm still not totally over it. I hear that modified boosters should be available soon which should help. For those who are unvaxxed it's just as bad as ever, with the saving grace being that doctors and hospitals have gotten better at treating it. 2 hours ago, rolloman said: ....

While not technically the correct way to approach it I think I'd have taken some test kits and if positive self isolate in my cabin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be 20 people is extraordinary to some. And apparently this was well known (if true) at disembarkation so yeah, it would have been newsworthy. And if none of those people tested, then how can they say they had Covid. People are so gullible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been on four cruises since restart and cleaning was as good as ever, maybe better. I saw cleaning people going into public restrooms after almost each person came out. Hand washing is a personal responsibility- amazing how many still don’t wash hands after all we’ve been through the last couple of years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
