Well, according to the posted chart, orange (below the threshold for CDC investigation) is better than - or not as bad as - yellow (met the threshold for CDC investigation). 2 hours ago, PacnGoNow said: This table is updated several times a week, as needed.

gardenbunny Posted December 24, 2021 #7 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I feel bad for Royal Caribbean - 2 ships have reported cases - Tiny percentage of the population… But have to admit I am glad Princess is not in the headlines like when Covid began!, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. Whoever came up with this color code doesn't remember mixing colors in school. It should go from green to yellow to orange to red. It doesn't make sense to go from green to orange to yellow to red. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMO There is actually an ANSI standard which address this. The CDC got it wrong. This is why many folks often confuse the yellow/orange warning levels for the ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
