These studies were conducted under the conditions of not taking your mask off the entire flight and keeping your face forward.

right, but closing non essential will also prevent spread in big box stores.
If Disney is so intent on doubling down on production and streaming, they should have moved production on some of these announced shows to Orlando and given displaced parks tech and talent a preferred shot at crewing them up. Put furloughed F&B cast to work on craft services. Opened up a few hotel wings to support productions and house people.
Yes, I know ‘theme park’ people aren’t ‘Hollywood’ people, but there’s a fair amount of crossover in the skill sets.

I'm going to predict they close again. Even if its just for winter months.

Because if other businesses can operate safely and minimize risks enough, then they should be allowed to stay open. This has never been about eliminating risk completely; it's been about finding ways to keep economically what we can going, while minimizing risk to the smallest degree possible. For some businesses, or business operations, such as indoor dining, that isn't possible. But in lieu of a study showing massive risk and sizable levels of transmission at DW, they should be allowed to remain open.
It is it the job of the prosecution (i.e. the one making the accusation or assertion) that Disney is unsafe and too risky to provide proof. not on the defense

“Travel can increase your chance of spreading and gettingCOVID-19. Postponing travel and staying home is the best way to protect yourself and others from COVID-19.”

It’s the departing airport, the arrival airport.. it’s the transportation to the hotel.. it’s the thousands of people in the parks, restaurants and merch shops.. it’s the bus back to departing airport, then the arrival airport. You can say show me where a case can be linked to Disney, well that is tough to do. But to think with the virus spreading like wildfire, that all this unnecessary travel is ok I think you would be wrong. If almost one in 10 or 15 or 20.. for that matter let’s say one in a hundred has the virus, it’s there. Can’t be linked maybe, but it’s all around.

Well so far it’s Florida vs. California, France, and Hong Kong.It is it the job of the prosecution (i.e. the one making the accusation or assertion) that Disney is unsafe and too risky to provide proof. not on the defense

Up until this point, it was also a regional problem. Northeast in the spring, south in the summer, and midwest in the fall. There were available healthcare workers, the ability to borrow other states resources, etc. Now, its a problem NATIONWIDE the whole nation is dark red. We are now going to have to work together as a nation to stop the spread whether we like it or not.

I’ve not framed it in terms of whether they should be “allowed” to operate. This is Florida we’re talking about—anything goes.Because if other businesses can operate safely and minimize risks enough, then they should be allowed to stay open.

I’m disappointed in Disney itself for remaining open.

For masks to be effective, people need to wear them and social distance when they are in close proximity to others for a significant length of time, especially indoors. I don't think this is being done. My state is one of the most restrictive, and has been from the beginning, yet we've seen two serious spikes. They weren't caused by lack of mask mandates - we've had them since May 1 with excellent compliance. My guess is that people are wearing them religiously under circumstances where the virus is less likely to be spread, and ignoring them where mask use can't be monitored.A good read on what happened to one place that had wide open spaces with no masks needed, they thought. Most of this could have been helped. Still we argue in some circles about masks. Science is behind it. I say that last sentence before the “ magic mask” people start to comment.
A small town dragged its feet on COVID-19 mask mandates, and residents pay the price
In communities where mask-wearing has become a political inflection point, the toll of the virus has surpassed the dark spring in America's cities.www.usatoday.com

Do you have studies or documentation showing increased risks and levels of transmission at DLP and DL Hong Kong?

Don't me wrong morally, Disney staying open is questionable at best. But if they close again...god help central florida.

There is increased risk in public places. There is increased risk in highly populated public places. You do the math.

Which is why we need another stimulus.

True, but studies have shown it takes a few minutes of maskless interactions to actually spread indoors, not a quick second of taking your mask off and back on.
