Title pretty much says it all. Sitting on the balcony looking out at beautiful St Thomas not on my excursion.
Tested neg on a PCR 2 days before cruise. Got on ship in Fort Lauderdale feeling fine on Sat. By Sat night felt a bit off, but attributed it to the moldy hotel the night before. Next day mild cold like symptoms for my husband and I. Tested with a home test before dinner that night just to be sure, and blam double line.
Called the medical office to self report. They sent up a nurse to administer a PCR test for both of us and my daughter and mother. All 4 positive.
We are confined to our own cabins, they didn't move us to a isolation ward or anything. They send up room service when we call, so we are fed. The medical office has offered us medicine if needed, but we brought our own just in case. They said they would run another PCR on day 5 and 6 of quarantine. If that is still positive, then we are stuck.
We will be allowed to disembark in Fort Lauderdale and continue on our own. We are US based and are not going international.
We have escaped covid for 2 1/2 yrs. All double vaccinated and all but my daughter boosted. We all wear masks indoors always. Best guess is that we picked it up on the drive down since we all came down with it at the same time.
We all wore masks the entire time we were out on the ship, so hopefully we didn't infect anyone else. I'd guess that 99.5% of the guests we encountered were not masked.
No really specific question I guess. Just wondering if anyone has advice
