The first County in FL to go from red to orange on the CDC community transmission map was Hendry county. There are only 57% of eligible vaccinated and around a month ago they had 1400 cases per 100k for a week with a 28% new test positivity. Maybe natural immunity works also albeit with more illness and death before the finish line.
Is it also a time machine?
After your hot tub COVID dinner from the future. let’s us know if paid Lightning Lane is still a thing.
I have a hot tub at home too
The Coronado Springs hot tub at the Maya pool can fit at least 10 people. Probably lots of drink and maybe food in the location.

Yeah, I’d say fear of damage to brand image is way more important than fear of a lawsuit. Disney gets sued just about every day for some nonsense. They have in house lawyers and law firms ready to go. During this whole pandemic Disney has gone out of its way to differentiate itself from local competitors in FL by being the family friendly and “safe” option. This will become even more pronounced when they can say all CMs are fully vaccinated. They will remove mitigations when they think their target audience doesn’t feel they are necessary anymore. They won’t throw away all of the good will they gained throughout this pandemic to rush a change away from indoor masks. Back in the Spring and early Summer when Disney acted the vast majority of Americans supported the removal of mitigations. I think that sentiment has changed and many people (especially those with unvaccinated children) are far more cautious today with delta and the recent surge we saw in cases.
FL is looking good
. NY and NJ are still down 7% and 21% over the last 14 days so the trend is moving in the right direction. Only 5 states are showing a double digit percent increase in cases over 14 days. The delta wave appears to be declining nationwide but some states got a later start so their decline will take a little longer. We know by now that this virus works in waves and once they ramp up it takes some time to ramp back down.

That People article left quite a bit out regarding what that child allegedly had to go through.This is so sad. To those who say COVID doesn't affect kids...yeah it does.
Family Mourning After 10-Year-Old Girl Dies Just Days After Getting COVID: 'It's Not Fair'
A Virginia family is in mourning after their 10-year-old daughter died of COVID-19, just days after she started feeling sickpeople.com
The sad thing is that many people will look at this sweet child and say "well, she was overweight, so that can't happen to my kid." I keep hearing excuses like that for every child who has died or has covid complications. Or "well, it's so rare."
I almost didn't post about my loved one's friend for that reason. Even still it didn't garner as much sympathy. The kid is still fighting for his life a month after catching covid. Other kids are suffering too. A classmate missed an important head injury diagnosis because the hospital wait times were so long.
Why can't all that be discussed?
The original article said she had no underlying medical conditions. Because someone isn’t skinny doesn‘t mean they are obese.
That’s what the parents said, yes. I get that. I don’t want to get into a back and forth about it too much. A child is dead. I was just responding to someone’s post who brought up the topic.
All of these things can and should be discussed. But it's frustrating when you live in an area where people are actively protesting against vaccinations, trying to prevent schools from having mask requirements (forget discussions about keeping kids in pods), and refuse to politely socially distance. I'm tired of people in my own community making excuses for why people's deaths don't matter and why we shouldn't change our lives to prevent more of them.
