Questions have been raised as to how so many vaccinated people are still getting covid. People can still get covid when they’re fully vaccinated, however they symptoms are meant to be less and you’re meant to see your chances of being hospitalised lower.
There has been an outbreak of Covid-19 onboard a cruise ship in the Caribbean despite the fact that all passengers and crew have been vaccinated against the Chinese virus.
The Carnival Vista, which departed from Galveston, Texas, on July 31, and has since issued strict face mask protocols and ordered infected people aboard into isolation after the outbreak was confirmed.
In a statement to FOX 26, Carnival said, “We have implemented our new fleetwide mask policy early on Carnival Vista, given that we are managing a small number of positive cases on board. Our pre-established protocols of vaccinated guests and crew, testing, enhanced medical capabilities and contact tracing anticipated the potential for positive cases, and they are designed to adapt to various scenarios. We have identified and tested close contacts and anyone who tested positive is in isolation. The decision to implement the mask policy was made in an abundance of caution, given our focus on the health and safety of our guests and crew. The voyage will continue as planned and we are dedicated to continuing to provide our guests with a fun and safe vacation. We appreciate the support of our Carnival Vista guests, who have been extremely supportive as we implemented the policy Wednesday evening.”
The Cruise company has so far refused to confirm how many passengers have tested positive but more shockingly is the fact that such an outbreak could occur in closed environment when all those on board are vaccinated.
