The overreaction in Singapore to the Covid was one of the things I was mentioning in my post.
Vaccinations won't bail out the Cruise lines , since a lot of young healthy people won't take them. Right now, some medical groups in this country are letting their people opt out of the vaccines for COVID-19. I have spoken to several older people who won't take the vaccine, and the same position is held by some local talk show hosts.
The creditors who loaned the money to the cruise lines may demand a reorganization of a Cruise Line so they don't lose their loaned money. Pulmantur, a British Cruise line seems to have been put out of business that way.
In our country right now , two democrat politicians have asked the CDC for all Covid -19 info on Cruise Ships to go to their committee. You know that is not good news for the Cruise lines. -Tom
I already had the best vaccine possible. covid-19 cells invaded my body during the crowded Carnival cruise ending on February 29th, I had minor cough after cruise for 2 weeks, then my body killed off the virus and in the process I acquired immunity from further covid-19 sickness, at least for some time.
Virus have attacked humans for 10 million years and our species is bigger than ever. Nature is a miracle on how it creates immunity in our bodies. During my last 60 years in USA I never was sick with diarrhea. Because during my first 20 years of life, I had exposure to those germs growing up in India.
The proper method to fight any virus is for healthy people to get exposed and develop immunity. Shutdowns prevent people from acquiring immunity and the pandemic is prolonged. JMHO.
