Editorial Summary

The creator provides an update regarding several medical emergencies and a rise in COVID-19 cases during a current cruise. The ship has been forced to make a turnaround and head toward a nearby port to rendezvous with a Coast Guard Cutter to transport a passenger in serious medical condition. While the creator notes that no one in their specific group is involved in the critical medical emergency, they report that at least seven members of their group have tested positive for COVID-19. The creator describes the symptoms as mild, often resembling a cold or stomach flu. They also explain the current quarantine protocols on ships, noting that infected passengers are escorted off the ship separately and are typically advised to quarantine for five days. The creator expresses concern about their own health because they have upcoming radiation treatment in Ottawa, which could be delayed if they contract the virus. Despite these challenges, the creator praises the ship's crew and the positive attitude of the passengers.
