The focus should be the unvaccinated being the clear majority of folks now in the hospitals and dying over this. The almost amusing (but aren't because people are dying and will die or become sick long term because of them) are those leading others with the idea that masks and vaccines should...

They could be looked at that way, but only if applied before getting the variant. Unless I am mistaken, there are a lot of "too late" scenarios.

LOL. I wish it were the situation, but I think only in states where Covid infections are resulting in more hospitalizations and worse in 2-5 weeks will any mask mandates be lifted because that just makes sense. There was talk and graphics above ( or just on the previous page) of a plateau. A...

Protective Allergy Parent upset with a possibility of peanut contamination should not be upset with another preventative method that can easily affect many others if not in place.

Yup. Pretty ridiculous as well as embarrassing.

Does said co worker even have a partner? If they are looking to procreate, it may be a Darwin award in the making.

I wonder how many parents with kids who have severe peanut allergies and also have issues with mask mandates and vaccines have issues with other kids who aren't allergic bringing peanut butter sandwiches or powdered peanut covered items to their kids' tables.

As ridiculous and sad this is, your 13 year-old will be prepared for the idiocy of the world and will more than likely rise above the others due to these experiences and your parenting. It would just be nice if it wasn't done this way. There is enough difficulty in a regular life, whatever...

When we used to go to open houses when the kids were in school, there was the big auditorium situation the same way you mentioned, plus the crowded hallways going from classroom to classroom afterwards with no tracking at all within each classroom. I think the only thing they could have gathered...

If a vaccine resistant ( seriously resistant) strain emerges, WDW closing permanently will be least of our problems. IMO, there is still time, but not for too much longer.

Thanks, you just made me cry. It does hit every now and then. But yes. Maybe if people stopped and thought about that, it would help a little more. Time for some PSAs to that effect in the media.

The only way to do a proper shut down at this point and not stop all travel is to require vaccinations and masks as well as immunization buffer for any travelers, with severe penalties including instant jail for any mask trouble makers on flights. Clearly fines are not enough. If we want to end...

A relatively small problem compared to the spread to the rest of the country. It should still be of concern, but a relatively small minority on the southern border is not what is driving the majority of increased case numbers, unless they all flocked to AR, AL and FL, where I am sure [/sarc]...

I heard "Idiots!" in a Napoleon Dynamite voice when I read it.

Keeping on topic, does anyone know if WDW is supplying castmembers with masks, or just the sneeze shield looking face coverings? And then, what kind of masks? Cotton? Disposable? 2 layer? 3?

I would still love to see the breakdown of which breakthrough cases are happening to people by vaccine and length of time since immunization ( 2 weeks past last shot). It would be hard to believe that data is not being gathered.

I had an opportunity in 2019 to do a one day, solo, in combination with a business trip, meaning hotel was already paid for as well as the flight. The value simply wasn't there. DL offers a better quality, longer hours, a cleaner experience all around and more attractions in a smaller space...

At this point, I communicate with you folks more than most. This thread, while long ( is it the longest?) has been more than greatly appreciated. It could have been shut down a while back and many times since then. IMO, it has a definitive value not just for us now, but for the future. It has...

Yes, lol, because why create something new and original when it can be stripped down and just re-labeled (cough cough- Journey Imagination+cough) and call it a new experience or renovation.

I agree, but we are quietly letting the situation take care of itself at this point.. The Delta and other variants likely coming will force the issue one way or another. There will be those who will always be unaffected directly, and shaming them now is amazingly similar to goading someone who...
