A crew member on the Jewel of the Seas informs me that the Royal Caribbean cruise ship has a total of sixty-four (64) COVID-19 cases amongst guests. Recent testing also revealed only four (4) infected crew members.
The cruise ship’s Infection Control Officer informed the crew: “Unfortunately our guest numbers continue to soar. Best way to help with the spread is to try to use that entire bottle of Oxivir in one day when sanitizing your areas and to encourage guest to use the hand sanitizers around the ship. Front of house personal, please be vocal in a pleasant and happy manner.” The infected guest count of 64 is a bit higher than previous three cruises which ranged from 46 to 61.
