PORT CANAVERAL, Fla. - Summer could see the return of cruises from U.S. ports, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The CDC announced that cruises could possibly resume in mid-July, ending a months-long 'No Sail' order. "We acknowledge that cruising will never be a zero-risk activity and that the goal of the CSO’s phased approach is to resume passenger operations in a way that mitigates the risk of COVID-19 transmission onboard cruise ships and across port communities," Aimee Treffiletti, head of the Maritime Unit for CDC’s COVID-19 response within its Global Mitigation Task Force for COVID-19, said in the letter obtained by USA Today.
