New to this forum, and the masked/vaccinated topic caught my eye.. I can attest that cruising can be safely enjoyed if everyone (passengers and crew) are fully vaccinated, masked, tested DAILY, AND with limited numbers of passengers (maximum 190 passengers, actual 132 on my cruise).Sailed on 23 day Viking River cruise in Europe in August 2021 and successfully completed the cruise without a single positive case. I am scheduled for another Viking River cruise this summer (2022) because I feel safe with their strict safety and covid protocols mentioned above - they work in keeping us safe and healthy.. obviously this requires the cooperation by everyone to make it work..I would only add that if by summer of 2022 there is a recommendation of a 4th vaccine shot, I would only cruise if that would be included as part of the cruise requirement...
