It's a little soon to be playing monday morning quarterback on how companies should have planned to go through a once in a century-level pandemic, isn't it?

Really the only wrong action IMO was negligence or inaction by a company. Even companies that had a health crisis/pandemic response plan and spent some effort planning for workforce continuity were completely flying in different directions daily. Even the most senior emergency managers and agencies were stretched. This was/is not a “traditional” incident to response to recovery scenario, it’s all jumbled up still.

"According to Disney, select Cast Members who are able to maintain at least 6ft of physical distancing from others and have outdoor roles will no longer be required to wear face masks. Roles such as horticulture, lifeguards on their guard stand, cavalcade float drivers, and parking attendants will be eligible for the new relaxed protocols.

Other outdoor Cast Member roles that take place before the theme parks open to guests may also be eligible.

Cast Members must keep a face covering with them at all times and put it on should they no longer be able to maintain 6ft of physical distancing from others."

I’m starting to think indoor guests masks won’t be removed until all cast outdoors have masks removed. At this rate, seems like it’ll happen within the next 2 weeks.

I kind of think Disney is saying "Hey we don't know who is vaccinated or not so if there's any chance an unvaccinated person is coming within 6 ft of our employee we're making sure they're masked up".

About half the population is not vaccinated

Sure, but for effective immunity, which explains current trends, we have 51% vaccinated (we know we can include 1 shot or 2 due to the UK) and ~35% of the population has had COVID-19. 35% of the remaining 49% unvaccinated is 17.1%. Effective immunity is about 68%, heavily skewed toward adults.

It’s 74% of those over age 12.
75.9% of those over 18.
91% of those over 65.
