Creator's Key Takeaways

It shows the start of media getting a much better perspective and a clearer understanding of what the cruise industry actually now has in place to minimize Covid-19 coming on board.

The protocols on Mind Shift and MSC Cruisers meant one they have testing of all passengers and all crew before the cruise before boarding to minimize the risk of it coming on board.

Guests are sharing very positive reviews and we're also seeing a higher proportion of first-time cruises than expected.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Accept that Covid-19 may still reach ships, but trust the cruise lines' protocols to manage it.
Understand that testing, contact tracing, and isolation are key to continuing cruises without full lockdowns.

Cruise Covid Outbreaks on ships cruising now tell us plenty about the virus and cruise ships now. There have been 2 new Covid outbreaks / issues on cruise ships sailing right now in Europe. However, they received almost no coverage and were ignored by cruise critics and haters. Why? I explore what these cruise Covid outbreaks were and why they have blown the objections and beliefs of cruise critics out of the water.
