Royal Covid

At least 48 people have tested positive for the coronavirus on Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas cruise ship that docked in Miami on Saturday, the company said, as the omicron variant continues to spread around the world.

Cruises are limited to those who are vaccinated.

Coronavirus regulations stipulated by the company meant that all travelers over the age of 12 had to be fully vaccinated and produce a negative test result before the voyage. Cruise companies tightened their protocols this summer — requiring pre-cruise tests for everyone, not just unvaccinated passengers — due to the delta variant surge.

It would have been quite interesting to see the breakdown of the vaccinated vs. non-vaccinated among the 48 people who got the Wuhan Flu but since we didn't, it means that almost all of them are vaccinated.
