The CDC has extended a ban on cruises from U.S. ports until Oct. 31. Multiple outlets report that CDC director Robert Redfield wanted to extend the 'no sail' order to next February — but was overruled by the White House.

Two Carnival cruise ships seen this summer are anchored in the English Channel as the industry remains hobbled by the coronavirus pandemic.Two Carnival cruise ships seen this summer are anchored in the English Channel as the industry remains hobbled by the coronavirus pandemic.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has extended a ban on cruises from U.S. ports. The new"no sail" order, issued late Wednesday, expires Oct. 31.

The CDC suspended cruises from U.S. ports in March after there were coronavirus outbreaks on a number of ships, with at least 41 deaths. In this extension, the federal agency says:"Recent outbreaks on cruise ships overseas provide current evidence that cruise ship travel continues to transmit and amplify the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19." The CDC says the outbreaks have occurred, despite health and safety protocols adopted by the cruise lines.

Of course realDonaldTrump overruled it. He has zero desire or interest in protecting Americans. He does not care one iota about 207,000 American deaths due to HIS NEGLIGENCE!!!

What good is the CDC if they can be 'overruled' by a mentally ill manchild?

The COVID-19 is Jaws and Trump WH Administration is mayor LarryVaughn. “ Gotta open up the beaches“ regardless

Bc 45 wants Florida in his pocket for election.

Overall society hasn't been serious enough about COVID-19, why is there still cruises being conducted.

ReneeRose723 Death ships, don't go!

billburr approves of this plan. 🤣

BanCruiseShipsandGLUTTONY

Trump Cruiselines, anyone? How long before we’re paying for meetings aboard the S.S. Circle Jerk?

“The White House.” TRANSLATION: realDonaldTrump said, let the cruise ships sail. This is why Biden/Harris said they don’t trust anything he says about a vaccine. I don’t either. He overrules the people tasked with making the critical decisions. He does things prematurely.

DON’S BODY COUNT of children, Moms & Dads AS OF TODAY 211,805 as he continues his plan of “IT IS WHAT IT IS“ DON’S PLAN of Herd Immunity will take 80% of the citizens to become infected resulting in US 3,310,026 DEATHS! Instead of fighting his scientists, he should just be honest

Y’all go ahead with your boat ride. Just remember, if you get sick, we ‘re not letting you off the boat in America! Makes our numbers look bad!

Imagine the financial impact this has had, not just on the cruise lines, but on every port they stop at during the cruise. The citizens living near each of those ports rely heavily on those passengers for their income, food and shelter. Open them before it’s too late.

People thinking about going on a cruises. Florida is a COVID19 death pit. The Governor is not counting people who died of COVID19 in their homes or a nursing homes. Florida COVID19 is spreading everywhere.

The monstrous ships should end up in permanent mothball. Better, take them apart & recycle useable materials.

Till they turn in to floating morgues

ban them forever

When will life even start matter to this country 206k are 💀 and we still playing with the guidelines to the White House liking. Signing waiver to attend Covid-Rallies. No one liable for your ☠️. Who’s accountable?

Overall society has been serious enough about the COVID-19 why is there still cruises being conducted.

Even February is hard to imagine. Unless we're talking 2022? Maybe.

Cruise ships are an abomination of global capital and waste. Get rid of them forever and spare the oceans, spare the air, spare the animals

I missed where in the Constitution it says policy is set by subordinates in the Executive Branch.

With instant testing available.. why not open? Flying in a plane seems worse.

Why is the white house able to override the CDC? While it's a government agency, it shouldn't be taking direction from the current occupant. It's an independent agency for public health. C'mon people! Are you really ok with this?

Great leaders surround themselves with people who are smarter than them and then they listen.

I heard CDCDirector say in the hearing the other day CDC was not controlled by politics. Guess he’s a liar too

Next wave of repatriation requests coming?

They should have reminded him that he didn't want to let the ships dock if anyone on board was infected. Canada won't let ships carrying more than 100 people in Canadian waters. It is supposed to end at the end of Oct but with the 2nd wave that will be extended.

Good. Thanks to their lobbying, they can go out of business faster because they'll be sailing boats 10% filled.

How about we get rid of them permanently, all around the world?

Everyone got that? Trump is now overruling scientists and medical people so he can declare COVID 'over'. He's literally getting people killed. Literally.

CDC extends cruise ship 'no sail' order through OctoberThe order was set to expire after Wednesday, but the CDC said recent outbreaks overseas show cruises can still spread Covid-19. How it all began ,in the timeline I recall, in mid wife and I were to Sit a 2 yr. old nephew, So they could attend a small extended friends and family Cruise/Destination Wedding. They all ended up staying at our place for 10 days and had Trouble ☹️ We were always told that senior citizens were the bedrock of the industry of cruise ships. The primary group of people not doing well when they contract covid is that age group. How does the industry intend to keep people safe from covid? Duh. Schools are not even open yet
