Concerned Cruiser

Agreed Brian, it’s fools gold at this point to aim for a zero Covid policy like China and Hong Kong are attempting without draconian measures (which aren’t working). What the cruise industry has done with Mandating vaccines, pre cruise testing and strategic masking is all anyone can reasonably do. And yet cases are still occurring, though I suspect most are asymptomatic especially amongst the crew. We will get through this wave and hopefully enough population immunity will have been achieved that we will have a solid backstop against future variants, which will occur, and be endlessly mentioned by the media. As has been mentioned ad nauseam by now , you are more likely to pick up Covid on land than a ship. 

I am curious to why the cruise lines have not put in place that everyone over the age of 5 is now required to be vaccinated before cruising.  Most of the blogs I have read of people that have contracted Covid was either with or around an unvaccinated person between 5-12.  Just curious to when the cruise lines are going to change to include everyone 5 and above since the vaccine is available.  I do not think it is fair to require everyone else and not the young children.
