The cruise industry is screwed. I hate to say it, but even prior to Covid it was the #1 hotspot for outbreaks of norovirus and other more common illnesses.
We are now learning that even the vaccine does not stop you from getting the virus although it can mitigate the illness for some. Full disclosure, the fine print never said it prevented you from getting the virus.
If I owned a cruise line I would do a prophylactic cruise where everyone agrees to take the remedies before they board the boat (and during the cruise if more than 3 days). Somebody should try that idea to save the industry because under the current guidelines and public health policy the ships will remain idle.
I hate to think how much it cost just to maintain a giant cruise ship. Has to be well over $25 million per year.
It would serve as a good test of the efficacy of the prophylactics as well. For some reason, the CDC and leftist politicians do not seem to want to know if the prophylactics work.
“We are now learning that even the vaccine does not stop you from getting the virus although it can mitigate the illness for some. Full disclosure, the fine print never said it prevented you from getting the virus.”
Full disclosure? Why do you intentionally mislead?
The "vaccine" was never advertised as a way to not get the China Virus. Rather it was advertised as preventing serious illness or death should the person receiving the "vaccine" contract the virus.
To this day, I fail to understand why it's called a "vaccine" since traditional vaccines actually prevent an infection.
How about a body condom cruise? That should be memorable and fun.
Just send all the bills to the chicoms.
