Hey, cruise ships aren’t for everyone…

He’s a doctor named Zachary and he talked about why he won’t be taking a cruise in the near future.

Zachary cited a recent CBS News report that talked about cruise ship inspectors for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) being laid off.
He said, “They help trace outbreaks to reduce the chances of more people getting sick. We’ve already had 12 Norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships this year, compared to 8 last year.”

Zachary said that cruise companies used to have their ships inspected twice a year, but that’s not gonna be happening anymore, apparently.
He said, “It’s not like we’re saving any money from the taxpayers’ perspective. This makes absolutely no sense.”
