The CDC ended it COVID-19 program for cruise ships.
Never mind that cruise ships are floating petri dishes anyway. I've been on two cruises (one to Alaska and one to Cuba) and both times I've caught a bug.
USA Today reported:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ended its COVID-19 Program for Cruise Ships on Monday.
"CDC has worked closely with the cruise industry, state, territorial, and local health authorities, and federal and seaport partners to provide a safer and healthier environment for cruise passengers and crew," the agency's website reads. "Cruise ships have access to guidance and tools to manage their own COVID-19 mitigation programs."
The CDC added that "while cruising poses some risk of COVID-19 transmission, CDC will continue to publish guidance to help cruise ships continue to provide a safer and healthier environment for crew, passengers, and communities going forward."
