Any body having possible COVID symptoms or notification from the health department from the March 6th sailing? Thanks! Brad It's Day 14 from March 6th. My wife and I (both in our 70s) are symptom-free (and actually feeling pretty good). Given our age, I cannot imagine having been a carrier and not actually succumbing to the virus. We are VERY thankful. We may still get ill from the virus, but it will not be from the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would know because friends and I flew to Las Vegas on March 11 on packed planes to watch a basketball tournament. At the same time there was a construction convention with over 100,000 attendees. It was only on about March 13th that things started shifting quickly. Unless this passenger was watching news via the internet he probably just thought he had a bad bug. Was the cruise ship making lots of announcements about symptoms of covid and to report if you have any symptoms right away. I highly doubt it. So, because of timing I give this passenger the benefit of the doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
son3cruisers Posted March 29, 2020 #180 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Here are all the flights and cruise ships confirmed with Covid 19 from Canada’s government webpage. Celebrity has two ships listed, and yet they are still silent about it. Hope everyone who was on this sailing is healthy and doing ok. https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases/2019-novel-coronavirus-infection/latest-travel-health-advice/exposure-flights-cruise-ships-mass-gatherings.html?fbclid=IwAR10XYZ68yHfK6KdY3rI9LhA209Xm50eCnnBcc5wrnJ9x1GLupwPuiPpTso#wb-auto-6 Edited March 29, 2020 by son3cruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OuiOnboard Posted March 29, 2020 #181 Share Posted March 29, 2020 So glad we did not go forward with booking the March-April cruises we had been considering. The news out of Hubei province back in January was enough to cause us to move slowly. Some might say we were pessimistic scaredy-cats. Others might say we were demonstrating cautious foresight and common sense. Oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14 months and counting Posted March 29, 2020 #182 Share Posted March 29, 2020 We were on the B2B February 23rd to March 15th, so our exposure doubled. Celebrity notified us a few days ago that a passenger on the 2nd cruise had tested positive for covid-19 and gave us a list of instructions to follow. When we returned home we decided on our own to self quarantine for 14 days because we were in contact with so many people for the 21 day sailing. Today is day 12 of 14 and we have experienced no symptoms. Celebrity's lack of communication with us has made us wonder if we should cruise with them again next winter or ever again. We had previously booked another 21 day B2B for 2021. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, good to hear that you are on Day 12 with no symptoms and wishing you continued good health and future safe travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peppertc Posted March 31, 2020 #189 Share Posted March 31, 2020 My wife and I were on the 23 Feb-06 Mar run...and if it wasn''t for this message string I would never have known there was any medical problem on this cruise...and apparently an earlier one too. Celebrity has not said a word. The Canadian authorities seem have been a lot more forthcoming in getting out info as to the travel modes and specifics than we in US can get out of our health authorities. I applaud that approach. Did not interact with many at all, but know that a fair number of Canadians were on the ship. Hope Argo's wife is only afflicted with a "much lesser bug, if one identified in tests., and the outcome is absolutely positive. Best wishes. PS: We also have a mid-August run on Celebrity on the books. Outcome: TBD.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
