Norwegian Cruise Line wants to start US cruises again on July 4, and it's willing to require all passengers and staff to be vaccinated before it sets sail.
Norwegian, which despite its name is a US-based company, sent a letter Monday to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, notifying it of its proposal. It's the first major American cruise line to lay out plans for a resumption of US sailings...
So on Monday, Norwegian essentially said: Enough. The company said it plans to require vaccinations for everyone on a ship at least two weeks before sailing.
"Vaccinations are the primary vehicle for Americans to get back to their everyday lives," said Norwegian CEO Frank Del Rio."We believe that through a combination of 100% mandatory vaccinations for guests and crew and science-backed public health measures ... we can create a safe, 'bubble-like' environment."
The CDC Friday put out guidance on how it expects to allow a resumption of sailings. It said it "recommends" rather than requires vaccinations for all aboard a ship....

CNN has a bizarre fixation on the Wuhan Virus.
Guess China Joe and his handlers are not supplying enough propaganda for airport television viewers.
Nope. All or none. No second class citizenship based on an experimental mRNA therapy.
About dang time. Let’s get these cruises going.
It’s NOT a vaccine for God’s sake!
This is why many folks WON’T go on cruises.
Maybe but I imagine Norwegian’s done some research on this.

LOL....The Voyage of the Vax’d
Sounds second class, alright.
😂 They had to tie him up, to take The Vax™
Maybe it’s Federal vs State bans.
DeSantis bans all, including Federal.....Abbott’s is only for state??
Trying to confirm....thanks.
I suspect they’re at doing it to make their customers feel more comfortable about getting back on a boat.
Good for business.
Money before liberty? Tell that to Washington, Lafayette and all those that died after the Declaration.
I suppose I should be grateful for all my years as a valued member of society. My refusal to be jabbed will apparently 2nd class me in many areas.
Make up your own proof and get on the boat.

If someone is vaccinated, there is no concern. If one declines vaccination, they are unconcerned. It's time to sail and let adults be adults.
Not that simple. If I was taking a cruise I wouldn’t want it screwed up by an outbreak on the ship even if I was immune.
Do you go to a grocery store? Ever use an elevator? Mass transit?
Life is risky.
Sure, but if there’s a chance I‘ll get stuck on one elevator because someone else gets sick I’ll take the other one where people are healthy.
The cruise lines are just giving me that choice.
