Therefore, they can require certain rules during the cruise. If nothing else, I believe the CDC has the authority to quarantine the ship and everyone on it which of course would result in cancelled cruises.

Can't wait to cruise in November with a lot of these "rumors" and "guidelines" being erased. A bit of normalcy is nice. For sure---things will move quickly now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting to make me wonder why the CDC changed their minds so dang quickly like that. Interesting and it kind of makes me question some things for sure.

Radiioman46 Posted May 18, 2021 #155 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think one reason for the CDC acting quickly to relax things is a result of the law suit and injunction that was filed. There were probably some negotiations going on those hearings last week, to get to a point to where they can just drop it. That's just my opinion. No facts to hang it on except we know two sides always attempt to find a compromise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it has been in Texas and we have been open for a long while. Zero deaths recently and other stats are way down. All good signs. So many people vaccinated plus you have those that already been infected so numbers are dropping. Probably other reasons as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that they decided to drop the mask mandate before even consulting with the whitehouse! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
