CDC lowers requirement for ‘highly vaccinated’ cruises
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention eased its threshold for ‘highly vaccinated’ cruises.
It has reduced the number of guests required to be vaccinated from 95% to now 90% of passengers.
The CDC has three cruise ships categories: ‘Not Highly Vaccinated’ where less than 90% of passengers are fully vaccinated; ‘Highly Vaccinated’ and ‘Vaccination Standard of Excellence’” with at least 90% of passengers fully up to date with their vaccines and boosters.
“This update is based on modeling data,” CDC spokesperson Tom Skinner told USA Today.
“Getting vaccinated is the best way to slow the spread of Covid-19, and CDC continues to recommend that passengers and crew are up to date with their vaccines before cruise travel.”
It enables cruise lines to book more families with unvaccinated children.
There are nearly 100 cruise ships in the CDC’s voluntary Covid-19 monitoring program with all under the ‘Highly Vaccinated ’category.
