[James Franco voice] Spring breaaaaaaak Social distancing be damned — some spring breakers are ready to party, even if it means putting themselves (and their communities) at risk
Though some college students may be unperturbed about the spread of COVID-19, that doesn’t change the fact that people are canceling their spring break trips en masse. Though the spring break season has only just started , it appears that this downward trend is applicable to spring break destinations as well. According to data provided to by Smith Travel Research, which provides data on the hospitality industry, room demand for hotels in Cancun has dropped 13.
Freitag believes this downward spiral will only continue as the case number in the United States increases and states and cities continue to adopt ordinances like the one recently adopted in Austin, whichto contain the spread of the virus.
“Keep track of people with whom you interact closely in case you are asked later to assist in contact tracking,” he says, adding that it’s essential to avoid large crowds of more than 200 people. He also suggests students visit their parents, grandparents, or elderly relatives before, rather than after, they return from spring break; and to pay close attention to their health 10 to 14 days after returning.
This isn’t necessarily bad news to everyone, says Duong: “Some kids are happy they don’t need to go into class, and some kids are extending spring break as a result.”
