How can a positive result not count as a positive case? This makes no sense. If coronavirus is detected then you have the virus irrespective of being symptomatic  or asymptomatic. Every other country counts this as a case. Are the USA trying to reduce their numbers by cooking the books? 

A PCR test is used to diagnosis people who are currently infected with the virus

known as the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
 

The disease it causes is called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

It is possible to have the virus but not develop the disease, especially when vaccinated.

I can only image an RC oasis class ship running with 9000 passengers and not everyone vaccinated.  This is like the beginning and its a vaccinated ship with 600 guests.  Scratching my head right now.

When you put it that way! 🤔

My take.

If these are the only 2 cases to come off the ship with COVID-19 after testing positive.....the vaccine is super effective.

Not sure about you guys but I always love feeling included!

Does anyone happen to know what the gluten-free and vegetarian options are?

On the menu it says "ask your waiter", wondering if anyone has :D

It is the Caribbean...it is hot out!

Putting on a dress shirt, then another thick layer of a blazer or jacket is crazy in that climate.

 

Women can get away with thin, gauzy, lightweight outfits, but men are stuck in multiple layers. It is not enjoyable. Why would anyone "want" to spend their vacation uncomfortable and hot?

Mike is my hero. :D

Will you be dancing in the dining room onboard?

No...wait maybe..., regardless I want to be comfortable while I eat which means no jacket. If I offend anyone while just wearing a dress shirt and tie all I can say is don't look at me.

Do you ever attend weddings where the facility is air-conditioned?

Sure...but it does not help prevent the heat when one is tearing up the dance floor.

The only solution is to take off the jacket to allow the heat to escape!

Ergo 90% of the reception the jacket is on the back of the chair.

I just want to ask a sincere, straightforward question. I'm not looking for a debate or an argument. I mean no disrespect and I'm not trying to make a value judgment. If you were at a wedding or business dinner (assuming you had a jacket) would you take it off while eating?

Yes I do.

It gets too hot and if one dances the sweat really starts to pile on.

Yes.

See I find that uncomfortable and would take it off anyways.

I plan on wearing a nice dress shirt with a tie on formal night. No jacket!

Will I be asked to leave or given evil looks?

Question for those who wear a tux, suit or jacket.

Do you keep your jacket on while you eat?
