New CDC report shows 94% of COVID-19 deaths in U.S. had contributing conditions

I hate it when I am right..... Mom censored/deleted the rest of my posts on this thread because there apparently are no adults and no freedom of ideas.
BTW - I have been banned from this thread because I dare disagree with the mob.

The CDC also listed the top underlying medical conditions linked to coronavirus deaths.

I don’t think we are disputing that many covid related deaths (such as what could have happened to my father) had comorbidities. What we are disputing is the claim that the remaining 6% is the true covid death number and therefore the whole pandemic is overblown. That is just plain wrong.New CDC report shows 94% of COVID-19 deaths in U.S. had contributing conditions

That 94% had underlying factors and only 6% were COVID only. Healthy and catch COVID and you have .0004% chance of dying and we shut down the world for this
And how many aren't rebounding even though their state has started to open things up? People stay home in a pandemic. The idea that there wouldn't be an economic hit if we just kept things open is blatantly refuted by businesses having rough times because their employees are sick or because their customers aren't out shopping.
WDW is open and can't reach their capacity, as reduced as it is, on weekdays. People hunker down.

That is pretty good. Considering major hotel spots like Hawaii, Vegas and Orlando are still hurting and business travel is still way down that‘s a promising number. This doesn’t apply to WDW but hotel discounts right now are crazy good.

I think the major destinations are still below 50% on average. But the country overall...bit better. Right now all dependent on domestic travel.

I know people are sick of sitting at home and at least where I live it was very popular to go anywhere with low case numbers this summer. NJ shore, renting finger lake cabins in upstate NY, even camping. I also know a bunch of people who traveled recently to drop kids off at college. People are starting to get a little more comfortable traveling. I think if we can continue to trend down there could be a bump in holiday demand.

I agree. Masks are the one restriction that is a deal-breaker for us visiting Disney. As soon as they’re gone, we’ll be back.

I'm highly doubtful that any bump in demand is coming. People maybe more comfortable traveling but many haven't felt the job loss yet. Its already started in many places. What amazes me is how many ignore that.

Oh I know it’s sacrilege to post anything positive or hopeful here, but the fact is you don’t know that. Sorry to interrupt the negativity - continue.

I agree it's no fun. But dislike of a restriction does not mean the restriction should be lifted. It's there for a reason. I'm sure Disney is looking forward to the day when they no longer need it. As am I and I imagine most others.

I imagine they will drop it once a vaccine is out there and has been distributed to the public. If that doesn’t come, who knows.

You’re reading quite a bit into that post. All I said is that we won’t visit Disney while masks are required and that we’ll be back as soon as the restriction is lifted. How can you possibly have any issue with that statement?

I probably won’t go back to WDW either as long as masks are required. However, in the current environment I would be even less likely to go if masks were not required. I don’t think it would help overall attendance. Some more people would come bu others who are currently going wouldn’t want to. Plus they have committed to the workers that masks will be required. It was negotiated with the union.

Pre-COVID there was a cough in to your elbow campaign. Some people complied some did not. I did not see how coughing into your elbow would reduce the spread of anything. With everybody in a public setting wearing a mask (properly) I do see where a reduction of the spread can be achieved. So yes! The masks need to be with us for the foreseeable future. Remember there were other contagious illnesses also spread the same way as COVID before COVID. You know what, those illnesses are still there! Masks will have positive impact beyond COVID.
