I volunteer to go aboard in summer. I am stranded now with risky flights and closed restaurants. If I am stranded on a ship, at least I won’t be cooking and cleaning pots and dishes. And get food & room free. I am quite OK with that.
My last cruise was on Carnival Ecstacy ending February 29th. Sure I got infected. But that was a good thing. With daily gym routine of mine, my body fought it off with just a little dry cough, and in the process I gained some immunity.
I would suggest any cruiser who has a specialty prescription to take extra pills of that unique prescription with you, as the pills may not be available on the ship or in the port.
You could be onboard for an extra 2 weeks of quarantine.
In my case it is ESBRIET.
Never heard of it? Thats what you can face with some pharmacies. So take extra prescriptions along that you can't wait for a few days or weeks to get. -Tom
