Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

[GimpYancIent]

Yes @GimpYancIent it is sad to see so many think believe that the pixie dust of being in the bubble protects them from Covid so they can stand closer then 6 feet "cause Tinker Bell and her pixie dust protects me"

Pre-COVID there was a limit, a point, where the Disney experience was no longer a good one because of the crowd level. Too much crowd and the enjoyment is no longer there. Now with COVID there are protocols, procedures and rules in place plus a reduction in the volume of guests. People are not going to carry tape measures or rulers with them nor are cast members going to have measuring devices or constantly pace off the distances between guests. If the only concern is social distancing all that can be said is everyone is giving each other elbow room. Of course people concerned with social distancing can always avoid potential crowds.

I'm not going down this road because around our country today are a LOT of people wearing masks, standing shoulder to shoulder, no care in the world...let's not lose our heads people.

I get that about staying away if you are concerned. I don't expect people going around with a tape measure but I do expect a setup like the one they had in Shanghai for the parades.

Do they dictate what the Walt Disney Company chooses to implement? Do the presidential rallies dictate what the Walt Disney Company chooses to implement? Or the riots?

Stop the virtue signaling.

 

[GimpYancIent]

Most intelligent “doers” have gone that route as well. What you’ve watched for the last few years on an Econ trajectory they rode that started 5 years prior are not the cream
Of the crop. Not even close.

Let’s let the top of the class have a crack at it...maybe something will stick.

When the shooting starts...you want the smart generals at the head of the column.

Hopefully Hall of Presidents at MK will reopen next year sometime after its pending closing with a new special guest that speaks at end of the fantastic show! It's one of our favorite attractions.

I still wish the Muppets would take over. If anything, the divisiveness will continue and I am not here for that on vacation.

And yes, I choose The Muppets over “don’t go.”

What the heck are you talking about?

I can't complain about crowds at Disney not distancing if I'm okay with people partying today.

Keep your masks on everyone!

I’m not okay with any of it. But at least I’m not paying $130 a day to hang with the crowds outside. It’s not a black and white issue. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander? I’m not ok with any of it.

Ahhhhhh The Muppets. Yes, those were some good times. There are moments of consensus.

Im actually not freaked out by either scenario as long as outside with masks on..

I'm too happy to argue today.

 

[DCBaker]

Numbers are out - there were 86 new reported deaths.

Forgive me if I expect better from blue voters. But I remember those Fire Island photos... stupid is everywhere.

I just don’t want people getting sick.

Yes it is. I am in a longhorn where the bar is full save for one hightop of people doing Saturday afternoon. Thankfully I am not in the bar but this is Florida. Wonder what the pain threshold is where people start taking spread avoidance seriously?

The current president speaking in AA form is divisive? I’ve enjoyed each version of the attraction.

Hmmm how is it possible that the house that said this would be gone November 4th, still has coronavirus in their house??? /s

At least 5 people in Trump's orbit, including his chief of staff, have tested positive for Covid-19

At least five people within President Donald Trump's orbit have tested positive for coronavirus, including his chief of staff and a top campaign aide, becoming the latest administration officials to be infected with the virus after a string of outbreaks in the West Wing.

I wonder if they'l have to let the White House sit empty for two weeks between occupants . . .

COVID19 will infect people period. It is contagious period. There are volumes of data, graphs and opinions about it. The medical and scientific community is working on solutions. Politicians do what politicians do to exploit the issue. Brace yourself now! Back to the beginning of my statement, bottom line up front, COVID19 will infect people period. It's a disease and does not care about political affiliation.

Okay. I'm just completely confused by your use of the term virtue signaling in your post to me, but no big deal!

I like the idea of a Muppet MC doing the talking for the presidents.
