Yes, we are all fed up after two years of this. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I have always taken my medical advice from them. 😀 Why not? Roger Daltrey is 77 and Pete Townshend is 76 and still going. I would love to meet them on a cruise over anybody from the organization in Geneva. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted December 1, 2021 #33 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I think YAHOO didn’t read the entire WHO recommendations. If you are fully vaccinated, you should be fine. If you are traveling to or from South Africa, you’ll be restricted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzer0007 Posted December 1, 2021 #34 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I have always loved baba oreilly … classic tune of The Who, I played many a time at very high volume levels on my old 2 channel stereo system. That habit from so many years ago might be why my hearing is not what it used to be … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a cruise everyone has been tested and the ships have good protocols. The problem we have experienced are not the "good protocols" of the cruise line (can only speak about Equinox and Edge), but of the bad hygienic habits and total disregard of ship protocols of our fellow passengers. For example, No social distancing. They feel everyone is 'super' vaccinated and tested 48 hrs prior to boarding. On our Thanksgiving cruise a lady was tested on Wednesday, negative, felt ill Friday, did the socially proper thing and reported to 'sick bay' and tested positive. So fellow passengers pile into elevators, not a care in the world. No more 6 feet apart in lines. A cursory walk through the buffets, passengers by pass the hand washing stations and many refuse the extra 'squirt' of hand sanitizer, with the excuses of already sanitizing in the cabin (what about the cabin door handle and elevator buttons?) Stewards go from one cabin to the next. We are unavoidably confronted by fellow passengers coughing without covering and taking individual yogurt in glass cups having second thoughts and putting it back, taking another. Another gentleman was eating his cereal with his fingers while waiting in line (no spaces) for the self serve milk and beverages. "We have met the enemy, and they is us."

Pogo I would not worry about surfaces (elevator buttons, door handles) but you are correct about the non hand washers, extra squirt of sanitizer, eating food with your fingers etc. These people are rude, selfish and inconsiderate!

Pickels Posted December 1, 2021 #38 Share Posted December 1, 2021 So, are suppose to put our lives on hold because of this latest variant? And when we get this one under control, will we still be on hold because another variant comes out; and over and over and over. No way, got two shots and the booster, if need be, will be masked up. Cancelled one cruise last year, planning on one next March. 🤞 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hickeyclan1 Posted December 1, 2021 #39 Share Posted December 1, 2021 This new "variant" is called Omicron. Rearrange the letters...it spells "Moronic" which is what you are if you fall for this ish again. 3 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to make some adjustments along the way and what we were/are doing but lived out lives. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sadly I would never fit into anything that I used to wear in those days. I still remember my powder blue Nehru jacket.

When I saw them in concert pretty sure that part was prerecorded, along with when it sort of reappears midway through. One of the best bands ever. Townshend is another one of those pop music geniuses. Relative to this thread, the title of the song takes on a whole new meaning....
