COVID Nearly Sunk the Cruise Industry. Now it's Trying to Make a Comeback.
The CDC says that a new omicron variant called EG.5 is causing a summer wave of COVID cases.
Yet, COVID is nowhere near the threat that it was more than three years ago at the beginning of the pandemic.
And that might be one of the reasons that people are cruising again on big ships following a COVID-19 decline.
WLRN reporter Tom Hudson tells us how one of the hardest hit industries during the peak of the pandemic is trying to make a comeback.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
