Positive COVID-19 Cases on Cruise Ships Unlikely to be “Detrimental” to Industry Rebound: Port Chief

Nassau Cruise Port Chief Executive Officer Mike Maura Jr said that “the occasional reports of COVID-19 cases onboard cruise ships would likely not be detrimental to the industry’s rebound.” He added: “This is not the first time nor will it be the last time that there are COVID-positive cases on these ships and in hotel rooms. Our reality is that there will be people that test positive.” He also noted that the ability to react appropriately in the event of new cases is important. “I don’t think it’s going to be detrimental. This is the world we are in. It’s all about the reaction and the appropriate response.”
