The cruise ship might be the culprit. They are notorious for  spreading sickness.

We went in to get our next shot and was told to wait until the latest version comes

out in October.We're good to go for now.

Stay safe out there.

Much obliged Smoke... I appreciate heads up with travel bugs....I sure wish I could get the new and improved booster that is supposed to target this strain but alas we go before it is released (tho I am checking up on its release daiy). My nephew from CA just got back from Spain and he the there 'VID" in his luggage! Was down about a week. My wife and I will mask on the plane and in airports, public transportation and stores. It does not bother me one bit to mask... I think people are childish about it. I lived in Asia for a few years 40 years ago and folks just masked to be polite if they had a cold. That's how I see it ...just a community thing. So thanks for thinking of me and I hope to do this trip w/o "kooties".

Rather than Yet Another Covid Booster with questionable efficacy, you could ask your physician for sufficient prescriptions of Paxlovid for your travel party & enough Covid test kits. Paxlovid needs to be started shortly after onset of symptoms so several test kits would be useful to determine when you become positive.

 

jes sayin'  YMMV

 

Because I am no medical practitioner, ask your doctor before doing anything I say.

Thanks for your thoughts Paul. We do travel with 4 test kits. I believe I could get the paxxlovid at a clinic if positive

We are heading back to AK in a couple weeks. A lucky trip of only 2 weeks. My nephew has a camper for us to use out of Seward. It is so strange to think we will get there in only 12 hours from the east coast as we had driven there and back in 2017. But any AK, no matter how short is good AK. Just happened on this  and thought to share.

Thank you for sharing, and I hope you have a wonderful trip back to Alaska!  Best of luck on your trip, and safe travels!
