Appeals Court Lifts CDC COVID Restrictions for Florida-Based Cruise Ships
A federal appeals court decided late Friday to lift the COVID-19 related restrictions imposed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on cruise ships in Florida.
Florida had initially won in blocking the CDC’s cruise ship order in a district court in June, until the three-judge panel on 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals earlier this month blocked that decision, ruling that the CDC’s COVID-19 restrictions must apply to Florida-based cruise ships.
But the Atlanta-based court late Friday reversed its decision in a two-page ruling, letting the lower court order stand and rejecting the federal government’s request, saying that it had “failed to demonstrate an entitlement to a stay pending appeal.”

Starting in January as part of Cook s reorganization, the Sheriff s Office took a deep dive into illegal drugs in the county, she said.
