Ah well, that's the south of England covered. Maybe the North of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will get the vaccine as a Christmas present...

You haven't had much exposure to insurance companies -- many will argue every avenue and corner that might allow them to escape paying out.

In covering themselves, they may have "uncovered" their guests and stripped away health or travel insurance cushions people might rely upon if they get sick -- the terminology that suggests it is "voluntary assumption of all risk" gives insurers a real escape route to deny coverage.

If this is accurate, does this just suggest that any travel insurance you may have (particularly as a foreign visitor) is invalid because you traveled at your own risk. This is a really scary announcement that if you choose to travel you could get sick, but there's no comeback on anyone other...

You're right -- even I'm being drawn into side tracks about haircuts (thanks Andrew C) -- so what do we actually know about WDW's future intentions and where or what are the best sources for reading the tea leaves?

I did my own yesterday, cheaply. And guess what I didn't have to wear a mask or sit less than 6 feet away from anyone, so no workers were infected in the process (remember the old cowboy films where they had to put a disclosure at the end that stated "no animals were hurt in the filming of...

Good question -- the guy heading it was listed as a venture capitalist, you know -- the people who put risk money in in the hope of making a financial killing. Tells you all you need to know about a) the risk level of this coming off, and b) the amount of money the drug companies and their...

Creative license in the cinematic world....

No it's not -- nobody wants a mob scene at any theme park just because it's an important public holiday. Nobody wants the next "Independence Day" film to be about a resurgence of pandemic because the population turned out en-mass to watch fireworks in a theme park.

The whole list of symptoms sounds horrendous and I only picked out the quote above because you compared your fitness before to your condition during the infection. I think it puts into perspective a lot of the commentary that implies it's only serious if you end up in ICU, so get lucky, get...

I don't know if you have shared your COVID experience earlier in the thread and I missed the post, but could you share your experiences about the bizarre symptoms you experiences that weren't the sound bite respiratory symptoms?

Hope the kids are well now. But the new info now about childrens' symptoms just shows how much information we still need to gather about how this virus affects people rather than swallowing sound bites about how it's only the old or ill who are affected. It may also explain why the disease...

So many people die on the toilet (high % of them cardiac arrests, believe it or not) that a gap under the door/partition is regarded as a necessary measure to allow checks to be made.

My last statement was that "This is why WDW closed, immediately, its intern program housing" Relevant, accurate, etc.

Accepted. Your grammar not up to scratch, (ie. what commas mean) but relieved you understood the main point I was making -- or did you?

What people are not outright saying is that college dorms replicate the living conditions experienced in prisons -- people share rooms, common cooking, socializing areas etc. If you have outbreaks in prisons, you will get outbreaks in halls of residence based on the same transmission threads...

Stay home, stay safe. Be grateful for public servants who try to do the right thing.

I don't think that a big corporation can hide behind what China is doing. But unless you are in the market for a Tesla product, it doesn't really matter what you think -- it's their customers' perspective that determines whether the production values meet the image the customers aspire to.

Now be honest, you pile it on (like the rest of us) because your eyes are bigger than your belly can take....

My understanding is that the polls show just the opposite. The "protesters" are currently in a small minority. I do wonder, though whether the authorities in Colorado will be investigating whether the "Take your mother out to brunch on Mothers' Day and expose her to disease" might be an...
