It probably piles up pretty good in some of those big stores...and keeps piling up. Many of those stores have hugely more than 10,000 people per week going through them (paying customers and others who zombie around in stores with them).

How many cabins died? That’s the important number.

Gross. Just put all the ships out of commission for 2 months then offer some great deals. They’ve got to get going again, like Trump says.
People (not me) love to cruise, you can’t just let an industry die.

Unless they propagated the virus in cells, and showed that it can replicate after that long a period, they can’t comment about ‘survival’ of the virus. If they just swabbed surfaces and did RT-PCR, all that proves is that viral RNA can hang around for a long time.

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh! That means that this psycho-insane, wildly inordinate, communist-takeover “lockdown” response is TOTALLY warranted! </hard-sarc>

I SPIT.

Was it viable? How much was there? How many virii are needed to infect, just one? Inquiring minds want to know.

OK, let’s look at the full picture, which is something NO NBC/CONCAST “news” outlet will ever present:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-03-23/coronavirus-traces-lingered-in-vacated-cruise-cabins-for-17-days

“Traces of new coronavirus were found on surfaces in cruise-ship cabins for as many as 17 days after passengers left, researchers said, though it wasn’t possible to determine whether they caused any infections.”

note that TRACES were found ... whatever that means

and here’s the kicker:

“The latest study looked at uncleaned rooms, but other research has found that cleaning the rooms of Covid-19 patients was highly effective at killing the virus.”

they found “traces” in UNCLEANED rooms!

AND cleaning was “highly effective at killing the virus”

that is all ...

I’m sorry. I don’t believe this for a second.

And I even have my CDC credentials from Ovaltine.

After a day of mostly postive news we have to have this. My question, which wasn’t addressed in this article, is if the virus is still viable after 17 days?

Fake news and a communist plot to attack the President. Must be, it fails to fit my narrative.

How do they know? They dont have any test kits.

Or.

Took them 19 days to get the test results.

Or

How many CDC employees to test for COVID 19? Nobody knows. They cant find any test kits.

What was the environment of the surfaces? How sure are they that nobody was "stealth carrying" and deposited the virus at a later time? How long before that had the virus stopped being viable as far as infecting anyone (being detectable and being viable are two different things).

Why is this cruise ship the first time we've had any inkling?

The sucky part is that there are far more questions than a bald assertion and idiots will go into a new panic over it.

Park all these virus laden ships back at their home ports they are flagged in. None are US flagged so they can escape US taxes. Send them home for their countries to pay upkeep.

“CDC says coronavirus survived in Princess Cruise ship cabins for up to 17 days after passengers left.”

Fake news. It’s in the deep state CDC’s benefit to keep the panic alive. In bed with big pharma inventing vaccines for an illness that most likely can be managed/cured.

I emailed CNBC and the replied back that they corrected the error. New headline:

CDC says coronavirus RNA found in Princess Cruise ship cabins up to 17 days after passengers left
