HARMONY OF THE SEAS: ROYAL CARIBBEAN’S LATEST SUPER-SPREADER-AT-SEA CRUISE

MIAMI — The Harmony of the Seas finally returned to its home port in Port Canaveral today after a disastrous week at sea.

Royal Caribbean transferred over a hundred crew members, who tested positive for COVID-19, to the Vision of the Seas which the cruise line is using as a quarantine facility-at-sea and/or floating hospital. Based on dozens of messages from cruise passengers, around 300 guests tested positive for the virus.

We last reported on the Harmony last week that there were nearly 50 crew members who tested positive forr COVID-19 when Royal Caribbean called on port in Roatan, which unlike several Caribbean ports does not have a regulation prohibiting cruise ships from calling at port with 1% or more of its total ship population (guests and crew) positive with COVID-19.

By yesterday morning, we received several emails and Facebook messages that there were many dozens of guests, including their children, who tested positive for the virus. Several people complained on Twitter that there may be as many as three-hundred (300) passengers at this time who have tested positive.
