NY Mayor DeBlasio just announced NYC will fully reopen July 1st. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/new-york-city-mayor-bill-de-blasio-plans-to-fully-reopen-by-july/ar-BB1gbkM3 And CDC says cruising can possibly resume in American waters in mid-July...

I do not think they will get rid of indoor and outdoor mask wear at the same time. From everything I've read/heard they know covid spreads more readily in enclosed spaces than out in the fresh air. As they just eased the mask guidelines for outdoors, I think it will be a while until they ease...

Please let it be orphaned reservations!

1. I have a feeling they will get rid of outdoor masks by then. 2. My husband and I have a terrible memory of the last time we were at MK during fireworks. It was soooo crowded my dh actually picked my kids up and literally threw them inside a small fenced area that was around a tree at the...

We will be hitting a heat wave while there - temps WILL be in the 90's at least for a few days. I am sure masks will still be the uniform of the day!

Going to Disney Saturday. I so hope they do not lower 6 feet to 3 feet while I am there, as it says it is effective immediately.

Pfizer working on oral (pill) vaccine. Interesting. https://www.news.com.au/world/coronavirus/pfizers-covid19-pill-could-be-ready-later-this-year-according-to-report/news-story/1723b9211635b3818d8ec38325976496

I totally agree that we must "open up" our world again, and get people back to work. Many businesses in my area have "help wanted" signs up, and I hear the owners complaining that they just can't get people to work. Granted, the jobs might be at a fast food place, but even my local deli and...

I think they must have increased capacity, as the first week of May (when we will be down there) was completely booked as of yesterday. Today all parks except MK have availability - even HS, which books up right away.

NYC schools reduced social distancing in classrooms to 3 feet rather than 6 for younger students, hoping to entice more students back into classroom as more will be allowed to fit in the space. 70% of school kids are still on distance learning. Hopefully more will return to classroom now, and...

I had been checking (for fun, as I had made my park reservation when they opened for us) to see what the park availability is for when we are down there the first week in May. There had been NO availability - everything was grayed out- until today. Now the only park NOT available is MK. My...

Very interested in seeing what the CDC says about relaxing mask wearing later today. While I don't think it will have any effect yet on Disney (we are heading there Saturday) I do think they will say outdoors with social distancing and not wearing masks will be okay - especially with the warmer...

We have gotten the vaccine, and would still be uncomfortable going maskless at this point in time. Not only do we feel masks protect us, but also protect others just in case we are carriers. It may just be in our heads, but we still swerve to avoid people not wearing masks if we see them-...

I think both play into deterring people from going. There are those who will never get vaccinated, and those who won't go because of the mask requirement. We waited until we were fully vaccinated (cancelled 4x) and are going on Saturday. We have been wearing masks throughout the pandemic, and...

Our zoos/movie theaters here are going to 50% occupancy today - masks still required. Slow but steady....

NY started offering vaccine to prisoners on 3/29/21. People in congregate settings were allowed to be vaccinated in January but most prisoners were excluded from this.

Hopefully someone will jump in and give us some updated info. Leaving Saturday for DW!

This is very interesting. When I called to confirm my redemption card was activated the woman I spoke with said make sure I go to the front desk the night before or everything would be charged to the credit card I have on file at 2 am. It seems they can't put a redemption card "on file." I am...

In NY all testing is covered, no matter how many times go you in. Plenty of places to get rapid tests - 15 min. results while you wait. Faster than my local fast food drive-thru lines have been - lol!

Just checked out of curiosity. Out of 30 state-run vaccine centers, 29 have appt. availability. Checked my "local" ones (SUNY Old Westbury, Jones Beach, Aqueduct) and ALL have appt. for today or tomorrow, plus many, many more for the days after- way into May. Stopped at my local family-run...
