Creator's Key Takeaways

the cdc took almost six months to give any sort of feedback about this plan

the cruise lines provided that within seven days so they really turned it around quickly

i left my own feedback you know to some of these questions uh that the cdc has

the cdc feels that the industry should take full responsibility both financial and otherwise for any outbreaks that happen

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Answer specific questions in the CDC docket rather than providing general opinions.
✓Use a word document to draft comments due to character limits, then attach it.
✓Consider personal responsibility and risk tolerance when deciding to cruise.
