    Default Cruise lines threaten to leave Florida over vaccine passport ban

    Fallout continues from Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ ban on vaccine passports with Norwegian Cruise Lines’ CEO threatening to leave the state if the company can’t do vaccination checks.

    "The thing that I believe all cruise lines want to avoid at all costs is a repeat of even a small amount of contagion on the ships," said Dr. Jay Wolfson, USF Health professor of public health and a lawyer.


    Wolfson said cruise companies can’t afford to lose any more money, and they may see Florida’s ban as a risk they cannot take.

    Seems like if everyone is vaccinated, it would be safe. Plus, it's a good Lab experiment as to just how safe these 'vaccinations' are.

    let capitalism prevail. another cruise line will fill it in
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    I imagine that there are liability issues too, with people who get sick while on a cruise, if it's the fault of failure to take infection precautions. Letting a bunch of diseased nonvaxxed passengers among the normal people would be a good example of that.

    There is no reason other countries or international cruise ships should have to take the risk of allowing unvaccinated and diseased Republicans to visit them.

    Agreed on capitalism. It's DeSantis who is against capitalism by preventing them from setting their own rules on vax cards.

    Cruise ships aren't like the Navy; they're huge Petri dishes to begin with. Slobs and drunks from all over the world, locked up together for 3-10 days at a time. As the link mentions, there's a huge cost associated with an outbreak.

    Carnival and Royal Caribbean haven't made a decision. Let's see if they were willing to roll million dollar dice.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    or maybe a bunch of liability disclaimers could be signed before buying the tickets and boarding the ship........
