Coranavirus Disneyland General Discussion

[CaptinEO]

With the recent news about the continual rapid spread of the Delta variant I felt it was appropriate to revive this discussion.

Does anyone see Disneyland closing again soon? I think it very well could be a possibility.

Highly contagious Delta coronavirus variant spreading fast in California

The Delta variant now makes up 14.5% of coronavirus cases analyzed so far this month in California, up from 4.7% in May.

No, not at all. People who are vaccinated have strong protection against the variant. We're past the point of no return unless vaccines no longer protect people.

 

[drizgirl]

Nope.

 

[Newtwo]

Stop reading the news.

 

[el_super]

Theres always a possibility. Seems pretty remote now, but any time an infectious virus is thrratening to overwhelm hospitals, going into lock down will be the best defense, and that includes closing Disneyland.

 

[SoCalDisneyLover]

No, I think it's full steam ahead, regardless of whether there's an increase in virus cases and deaths.

I even believe there would be such outrage over requiring people to wear masks again, to make that unlikely as well.

Virus? What virus?

 

[Californian Elitist]

Let’s not get into this. Please.

 

[CaptinEO]

Let’s not get into this. Please.

I was reading about places reimposing restrictions. Figured it should be discussed.

I guess at some point it was going to be brought up again. Still not out of the woods.

Preparing for mudslinging and name-calling now.

I’d qualify this would be the response until we get a variant that makes the vaccines ineffective, at which point I’d hope some guidelines would come back.

Of course, I’d rather hope that never happens at all.

Shut it down!

 

[Wendy Pleakley]

I imagine the worst case scenario if cases increase would be to enact something like a mandatory vaccine check for admission.

 

[DrAlice]

As previously mentioned, current vaccines are effective against the delta variant (If you are FULLY vaccinated).

Just my opinion...

I only see shut-downs returning if:

1. A different variant emerges that circumvents the current vaccine protection. (Not likely if we reach a high vaccine threshold.)
and
2. There is political will for the shut down. (IMO, this is not likely unless a new variant is deadly in a younger demographic - i.e. kids)

Again, just my opinion based on current available information. Now I will leave this thread before it jumps the shark like all the rest

These are all very good points.

 

[BasiltheBatLord]

Pandemic's over (if you want it)

 

[George Lucas on a Bench]

I can't accept that. I can't ever go back to any kind of normal. The Pandemic never ends! This is the New Normal. Shut everything down. Lock everyone down.

 

[CaptinEO]

I wonder if restrictions will return?

I don't think so. Current vaccines appear to be effective against the Delta variant. Keep in mind that in LA, hispanics and blacks are still behind in vaccinations rates and this is likely being done as a catch all in an effort to protect unvaccinated population and my guess, take away the concerns many have had that unvaccinated folks are just not wearing masks because nobody can stop them. This is not being done to protect the vaccinated.

No way Newsom would lockdown again when he has a recall coming up.

No way Newsom would lockdown again when he has a recall coming up.

Unless there is a variant which entirely escapes immunity, no one thinks another 'lockdown' would be necessary. Return to universal masking? Absolutely. Capacity restrictions? Possibly.
