Carnival Cruise Covid-19 Outbreak: 27 Vaccinated People Test Positive For Coronavirus:
... [+]All of this doesn’t mean that the Covid-19 vaccines don’t offer any protection. That would be like having your pants fall down in the middle of a job interview or date and saying, “see, this proves that pants don’t do anything.” The Covid-19 outbreak could have been much worse had more people not been vaccinated.
This Carnival outbreak is a reminder though that while the Covid-19 vaccines can offer very good protection, they are not perfect. They are not like full body concrete condoms. You typically don’t walk into a party and declare, “I’ve got some underwear on and am ready to mingle.” Similarly, don’t walk into any public place and say, “I’m fully vaccinated, I’m indestructible, and I’m ready for some social closening.
This is especially true aboard a cruise ship. Cruise ships can be wet dreams or buffets for the Covid-19 coronavirus. After all, such ships can pack quite a few people together into relatively close quarters. And people typically don’t stay confined in their cabins during the whole trip. Otherwise they could have just stayed at home and put their beds on rocking machines. As a result, cruise ships can have lots of shared surfaces and airspace that may be easily contaminated.
that they “will continue to welcome unvaccinated guests, including children under 12 who are not eligible for a vaccine.” So if you are on the ship, meet another passenger, and ask, “which vaccine did you get,” the answer could very well be “nope”, “neither”, “The Carnival Vista cruise ship departed from Galveston, Texas.
With the more contagious Delta variant spreading on land in the U.S., there’s a good chance that it can spread on sea too, meaning on a ship that’s at sea. So cruise lines will have to get their ship together and implement multiple layers of Covid-19 precautions, likely more than they had originally envisioned when resuming cruises earlier this year. Otherwise, they will risk being up a ship’s creek without a paddle, so to speak.
