Good question ! Most of the new cases now are the delta variant of the virus, & the vast majority are in unvaccinated people, but in rare cases vaccinated people get infected (but usually the disease is mild). If you are generally healthy & do not have risk factors for serious disease (cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, immune deficiency) then you can probably safely enjoy a cruise.
