Creator's Key Takeaways

the story here is that yesterday in the early afternoon the captain came on board you know giving a full announcement and full disclosure i appreciate their transparency and let us know that when they were doing the routine antigen test to head back home to the united states they found that two passengers that are in the same room they're traveling together that they were fully asymptomatic but also tested positive for coven 19.

nobody else on board over 700 crew members almost 600 passengers nobody else tested positive for kova 19 which means that it has been contained.

this is a party this is excitement this is about the return to cruising.

the protocols around the ship you won't find i think i think it'd be tough to find a hospital that's cleaner than this particular cruise ship.

YouTube Video Description↓

After reading a lot of the articles over the past day, we were alarmed that the full story wasn't being told by any major news publication. Unfortunately, they took one piece of information and made a lot of assumptions and more importantly left a lot of information out because the truth is they weren't here. So instead of posting click-bait negativity, we are coming to you directly from the deck of the Celebrity Millennium to give you the full story of how everything played out onboard. The facts may surprise you. Below is the release that Celebrity sent out last night, "Today (June 10), two guests sharing a stateroom onboard Celebrity Millennium tested positive for COVID-19 while conducting the required end of cruise testing. The individuals are asymptomatic and currently in isolation and being monitored by our medical team. We are conducting contact tracing, expediting testing for all close contacts and closely monitoring the situation. Celebrity Millennium is sailing with fully vaccinated crew and guests and following comprehensive protocols that align with our destination partners and exceed CDC guidelines to protect the health and safety of our guests. All guests on Celebrity Millennium were required to show proof of vaccination as well as a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours before sailing from St. Maarten this past Saturday. This situation demonstrates that our rigorous health and safety protocols work to protect our crew, guests and the communities we visit." Fast forward to this evening and when testing concluded those two (asymptomatic) cases were the only two on board. In the mainstream media, the most alarming omissions had to do with the rest of the guest on-board. The guest experience didn't change for anyone else on board. Yes, you heard that right. We enjoyed dinner, a show, and perhaps some late night snacks at the buffet with no changes in our experience. No masks, no quarantine, nothing... The response was swift, the protocols worked, and everyone else went on with their cruise. Celebrity should be extremely proud of how they have handled this situation, and you really can tell they were prepared. Thanks for following along on our livestreams throughout the week! Keep in mind we will be on Royal Caribbean's Adventure of the Seas, Celebrity Edge, Odyssey of the Seas, Freedom of the Seas, and Celebrity Equinox in the coming weeks and we will keep the drinks and the content flowing. Until then, "Ciao for now!"
