Creator's Key Takeaways

somebody on board royal caribbean's quantum of the seas has tested positive for coronavirus

this proves the exact opposite the person who has coronavirus and has coronavirus on this cruise did not get it on the cruise

cruise lines need the opportunity to test their procedures and work out what happens when somebody has coronavirus on board

i feel so much safer on a cruise ship than i do a bar or restaurant or land

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wear masks and follow social distancing rules on cruise ships
Trust that cruise line procedures can prevent the spread of coronavirus

YouTube Video Description

Royal Caribbean’s Quantum of the Seas has had a positive Coronavirus test onboard when sailing in Singapore. Although not ideal this does give the cruise line the perfect opportunity to prove that their procedures and guidelines do WORK at preventing the spread of Coronavirus. ** SINCE PUBLISHING THIS VIDEO THE TEST HAS BEEN CONFIRMED AS A FALSE POSITIVE. Yay! It's still a great test of their Coronavirus Procedures ** Cruising HAS to restart at some point. Singapore is averaging around 12 Coronavirus cases per day which is much less than the UK and the US where cruising is yet to start. In this video, we have a look at what has happened, why this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, and what procedures and guidelines were in place on the ship. Featuring real photos from the sailing in question. A massive thank you to the Singapore Cruise Society who allowed me to use their photos for this video.
