Pres. Biden: 'To the mayors, school superintendents, educators, local leaders, who are standing up to the governors politicizing mask protection for our kids, thank you...I stand with you all, and America should as well.'
A federal judge ruled Sunday in favor of Norwegian Cruise Line and will allow the company to require proof of vaccination on cruises out of Florida despite a state law that bans cruise ships from enacting such an order.contending that the law prevented them"from safely and soundly resuming passenger cruise operations from Miami, Florida."
Florida's law threatens to fine companies $5,000 each time they ask a customer to provide proof that they've been vaccinated. Florida has seen a surge in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in the last couple of weeks, with most cases affecting unvaccinated residents. Judge Kathleen M. Williams wrote in her decision that Norwegian"has demonstrated that public health will be jeopardized if it is required to suspend its vaccination requirement," and the Florida Department of Health,"identifies no public benefit from the continued enforcement of the Statute Case."
Neither the cruise line nor the Florida Department of Health issued immediate statements about the ruling as of Sunday evening.
