Not sure that matters. Florida doesn’t own Disney so they can do what they want at the gate

In a nice world. yes, that should be the motive. It's my motive too; I both want normalcy again, and I want my friends, congregation, coworkers, and family to be ok too. But not everyone is inherently going to have altruistic motives. Especially Gen Z / Millennials (I am loathe to paint them the same, but let's face it, they do bear some degree of selfishness when you meet some of them)

Disney is a Florida business and this applies to all businesses in Florida.
So Disney 100% has to comply
They can try to fight it. I don't think they will though.

The concerning thing is they are the ones filling up the hospitals.
COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations on the rise for young adults in Orange County
Dr. Raul Pino with the Florida Department of Health in Orange County said the county is preparing for what is expected to be a busy six weeks.

They sure as heck won't be doing a rapid test on every guest... cost's way to much.
I'm guessing they will drop the "Temp" checks, as those are pointless anyways right after easter.
Mask policy goes away by July.

It's interesting that it specifies "COVID-19 vaccination", so it is ok for business to require proof of other vaccinations. This would probably be a good angle to go after if someone wanted to fight this.

Wouldn't the option to show vaccination for additional rights i.e. no mask, sit with a large number of people in your group if all vaccinated, be allowed under this? It's only preventing admission or service all together.
That would deny anyone service.

It seems a bit weak on the reasoning underlying an emergency order - creating "two classes of citizens" doesn't have the legal gravitas of preventing spread of a deadly virus. That, and the free flow of commerce rationale, are probably more appropriately left to the legislature. I'm sure it's being challenged as we speak.
With this type of emergency order, it's often less about what can be done and more about who can legally do it.

Not having shows and theaters running last summer was disappointing for guests. Right now it's crippling operations. Frozen and Mickey shorts aren't cutting it. I'm hoping vaccines can get them back up and running. We need shows like Indy and FOTLK to get people out of lines for 30+ minutes at a time.

He's polling even with the governor from my home state, Northam. You know, the blackface guy.

Of all the mitigation measures, what is the order that WDW may roll them back? Not which order do you prefer them to be rolled back. Predicting which measure will be rolled back first, and then which one will fall next, will be very interesting to watch. Capacity limits may be bumped up and seemingly argue in favor of loosening the measures.
One prediction is that social distancing will be dropped first. The temp check may be next. Mask may be third on the list. Hand washing has always been suggested but very sporadically followed and is probably unenforceable. Temp checks and masks may decrease some spread. Social distancing (6ft vs 3ft) is already under revision and directly affects their capacity throughput numbers. What people should do is not always what they want to do nor what they actually do.

Not being political at all in my response to you Martin as you are my favorite Disney source not to mention I love your YouTube channel. Your knowledge of all things Disney and the history of Disney is just amazing to me. In the US we do not have a fall back system of where the government will pay us a huge portion of our salary if we are furloughed, so in order to survive we have to work. That is why Desantis opened Florida up. If the lockdowns were working, then California would not have been in the mess that they were in. California was on a very strict lockdown policy and their numbers were the same as if not worse than Florida's. In an ideal world, we would all love to stay home and get paid until this was over but unfortunately that is not reality for us over here in the states. Not sure how it works in the UK, but I hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and making it through all of this. Just want to make it clear that I am not attacking your point of view as your entitled to it, but for many Floridians he saved their livelihoods by allowing businesses to reopen in a safe manner. Whether or not the people that live in that state or visit it are smart enough to wear a mask and socially distance themselves is another matter all together, but that is not a Florida issue, that is a worldwide issue.
On a separate note, have you done one of your tribute videos on The Great Movie Ride? I would love to see that as I know you would have the most informative and detailed video.
Take care and hope you have a great weekend.

It also doesn't say much about penalties. If I am reading it right it does sound like the state could revoke a companies business license, but if Disney decided to violate this, does anyone really think the state would shut them down?

Since it looks like we are gonna keep this thread in politics, can we insert a couple of other names and ask the same question?
