I wear a mask because it's required for my job in a hospital and I wouldn't have a problem wearing one on board. Not sure who you're calling a worry wart, but I'm guessing you meant it for someone else. Ps...I work around those that are currently affected, do you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only thought, outside work and family, is to get back out to sea!

toad455 Posted June 9, 2020 #211 Share Posted June 9, 2020 If RCCL does sail on Aug. 1, it would likely only be the following ships sailing the Caribbean: - Navigator(via Miami) - Independence(via Fort Lauderdale) - Mariner(via Port Canaveral) - Enchantment(via Galveston) - Harmony(via Port Canaveral) - Liberty(via Galveston) - Freedom(via San Juan)? - Majesty(via New Orleans) - Symphony(via Miami) I doubt the Grandeur sails out of Baltimore and none of the three ships scheduled to sail out of Bayonne will be sailing this year. The Freedom out of San Juan is also questionable. So RCCL might be in a similar situation as Carnival in only having 8 ships sailing if they do start on Aug. 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the new quarantine requirement in the UK and this from Cunard, it starts looking like TA's from Spain, Italy and maybe even UK will not happen as scheduled. RCI should address what they will be doing soon I hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really understand the hatred of masks. Sure, they are annoying but if anyone can be helped, why not. Remember when seat belts came out? There was a lot of resistance against them, yet now they are second nature. I agree we wear masks out shopping. In the warmer weather my glasses fog up more, but that’s easy to remedy. some of the places we go it’s mandatory to wear masks and it’s enforced. My take is this - if everyone wears then regardless of whether you believe masks protect you or others around you, if everyone wears everyone is protecting everyone. Some fun FACTS We moved to a city of 19,413 where so far there has been 1 reported case. Mask wearing in local Publix and local restaurants over 90%. We moved from a city of 38,659 so pretty much double. Number of positive case 54, mask wearing less than 20%. DD has an in person graduation ceremony last week. Rules where temperature checks upon entry, social distancing and face masks. Over 650 students and families turned up, the venue did not even try to enforce as less than 10% were wearing masks.they only enforced for the students. On top of that they are holding a graduation party this week for the graduating students and I expect the number of students that turn up to be similar in numbers. I can only imagine how that is going to go! I will be extremely interested in the next couple of weeks to see if they have a spike. At the end of the day rules are rules. If masks are mandatory then yes we will happily abide by these rules for our health and that of others around us. It’s also an issue of people accepting those rules. Look at the airline that resumed flights, masks were mandatory then once onboard passengers refused to continue wearing masks so the airline has now suspended all flights again. Everyone has a choice to make, but please don’t allow that choice to be at the detriment of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read it all you worry warts. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Time for you to do some research. LOTS of clarification on that initial asymptomatic release from yesterday. They have walked back the "very rare." Those who are and STAY asymptomatic can transmit in the 15-16% range. The much bigger picture is that those who PRESYMPTOMATIC and show no symptoms yet are likely some of the largest transmitters since the virus is it's most contagious 2-3 days prior to symptoms. I defy anyone to determine who is asymptomatic and who is presymptomatic. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
