We do get a subgroup that refuses the polio vaccine. It's how we got the California measles outbreak a few years back...because of parents refusing the vaccines for their kids....so you are going with ducking the uncomfortable question you don't want to think about?

I guess the answer to this is yes.

that's even more funny then. The fully vaxxed cruise was on the honors system. :) That is good info....no wonder the cruise company isn't advertising that little fact on their fully vaxxed cruise. Actual useful info for a change from the espola.

I didn't find any evidence of "honor system". What is your source for that?

The nonsense is the crap they peddle in critical race theory. If you like the idea of creating division where there wasn't any before, the CRT is for you. But then again you just regurgitate what you are spoon fed.

Can you be more specific in your criticism of critical race theory? What specific "nonsense" or "crap" have you found?

I thought you said they tested anyone who could not show a vaccine card....so people were allowed on the ship without proof of vaccination, right? Or is there some other proof of vaccination of which I'm not aware?

They didn't conduct the tests. They required a negative test result within 72 hours instead of a vaccine card.

That shows up in almost every news time I found.

If you insist on being ignorant, there is only so far I am willing to go to help you.

That should read "allowed a negative test result within 72 hours in lieu of a vaccine card". My edit time ran out before I could correct it.

In the absence of your providing any material results, I don't know how you can "know" that.

Kind of like you asking...hey can you provide proof the sun is hot? And I tell you step outside or google it. And then you respond well since you didn't provide the info I could have looked up...it all seems fishy or something.

Try looking up stuff. You do this song and dance all the time.

The news just broke last night. The AP said they were contact tracing and appropriate steps would be taken to isolate those exposed. I've been waiting for the update but haven't found exactly what they decided to do yet (who, if any one, they will isolate and how long)...seems like this took them by surprise and are still waiting to hear re guidance from authorities and the cruise line. There's a reporter from the Times on the cruise live tweeting on it, but she has nothing on it yet.

It's all very strange. Why not, if you are going to insist on both, have them present a test within 48 hours before boarding and rapid test them when they get on....why was there testing done at the boarding site, when you know a positive result could come back 24 hours later. Or did the couple get tested on ship for some reason? Odd. The reporting isn't clear.

Oh but the positive couple have been definitely put in an isolation cabin according to the Times reporter from this am. She doesn't say for how long.

The oddest thing is that this appears to have taken them by surprise. There weren't that many possible outcomes to consider.

Polio? So far, most of team virus seems more concerned with helping ‘rona than with helping polio.

If we ever get a subgroup of people who refuse the polio vaccine and insist on dumping raw sewage into the bay near oyster fisheries, I will object to that, too.

Perhaps hound will step up to defend their “freedom”.

So again they advertised this as a fully vaxxed cruise. But if you didn’t Provide a card you had to get tested. So If true it’s the honors system...you just had to say you were vaxxed but could get tested in the alternate. So it could turn out even in the end this couple lied about being fully vaxxed???

jeez way to get lost and crash again Magoo.

You don't have to look anything up. Just tell us what you know about it.
