Federal judge sides with Norwegian Cruise Line in fight with Florida over vaccine passports
A federal judge on Sunday night sided with Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings in a fight with Florida over vaccine passports, granting the cruise line’s request for a preliminary injunction that blocks a state law barring businesses from requiring proof of vaccination.
In a nearly 60-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams stated that Florida “fails to provide a valid evidentiary, factual, or legal predicate” for its prohibition on vaccine passports.
“Amid myriad, rapidly-changing requirements regarding quarantining and testing, there is one constant that facilitates cruise line customers’ access to advertised ports of call: documentary proof of vaccination will expedite passengers’ entry into virtually every single country and port where Plaintiffs intend to sail,” Williams wrote.
……..
The company, meanwhile, said it looked forward to setting sail. “This order will now allow the Company to operate in the safest way possible with 100% vaccination of all guests and crew when sailing from Florida ports,” it said.

Good. DeSantis had no right to prohibit NCL from taking whatever measures it deemed necessary to protect its customers, especially since the governor has no desire to protect his own people.
It’s almost like DeSantis wants people to get COVID. What he is doing in Florida is just insane. And he wants to be the next POTUS. He either is missing an oar or he is auditioning for Donald Trump.
Well, DeSantis is a Trump cult member and the cult is on a mission to restore their god to the White House by any means necessary. They seem to think that as the virus mutates and becomes more deadly, this will destroy the Biden presidency so that people will beg for Trump to take over. The cult hopes to accomplish this by not being vaccinated, by refusing to wear masks or practice other CDC recommendations and by forbidding others from doing what is necessary to protect themselves and others. So what if people die? The more people die, the better.
This is why I call the 620,000+ dead from COVID with more to come — Trump’s American genocide. DeSantis is one of Trump’s many accomplices in this mission.
heckuva job, Ron https://t.co/aepKZvPNzT
