Taking a Cruise Just Got More Dangerous
It's not a surprise that taking a cruise can be hazardous to your health these days. Cruising was a hotbed for contagion in the early days of the global pandemic crisis before the industry was shut down in March. We've seen the COVID-19 outbreaks continue in select international markets that have resumed sailings.
Carnival (NYSE: CCL) (NYSE: CUK), Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL), and Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE: NCLH) aren't entertaining passengers until some time next year, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wants to make sure that potential seafarers know what they're getting themselves into come 2021. The national public health institute is bumping the risk of cruise ship travel to Level 4, the agency's highest level of concern for possibly contracting the COVID-19 virus. Are you still bent on hitting the high seas next year?
