As for how soon after you're infected a test works, it depends on the test. The swab test checks the actual presence of the virus' RNA in your system, and would show a positive test fairly quickly (less than an hour for most people). The antibody test, which shows that your body has produced antibodies against the virus would show up a bit later, depending on how healthy your immune system is.

Rapid testing, even if far more effective than it is now, would not result in anyone getting your DNA. It's providing either a drop of blood or swab which is immediately tested for antibodies then discarded. The solvents added to the test would not make the sample viable for saving for even a few hours, as they are made to degrade cells in order to better test. Sorry, molecular genetics and molecular immunology degree coming out.

If you really think a government could or would save old samples for some form of DNA database, not only is that factually impossible, it's downright at conspiracy theory level.

I went on Ontario March break in 2018 with my teenage daughters. Turns out it's the same week as spring break for Universities in Georgia, which I'd say around 80% of the ship was full of.

If you want specialty dining, it wasn't an issue, as they were pretty empty. I leaned into it and had a blast.

Well, considering I'm coming from Toronto, Canada to Miami for my December cruise, I think I can pack my shorts any time now. 

2B or not 2B, is that the question?

Here's a few from my last cruise, Fan2Sea on Brilliance, from a couple years ago.

Pricing isn't decided by a travel agent, it's by RCCL. It will be the same regardless.

Ok, wasn't just me then.

I was just going by my experience last cruise. Most nights the specialty restaurants were half empty, some even moreso.

From my thinking at least, dinners will now be a specialty restaurant AND Playmakers, not Playmakers OR specialty restaurant.

Just got off the phone with Royal. In the phone rep's notes, it specifically stated that Playmakers and Johnny Rockets were included. So you can have wings as a "second dinner". ?
