Mulling it on today, I think a good (voluntary of course) system would be a liability waiver of sorts, except you’re accepting liability.
For Disney, here’s how it would work:
when purchasing a ticket, whether single day or park hopper, or booking a resort, and so on, a check box would appear:
“By checking this box YES I certify:
a. I and all members of my party am fully vaccinated and
B. I allow Disney to transfer my name, address, and phone number of all members of my party to the state of Florida contact tracing should an case or outbreak of COVID 19 occur
C. I hereby give permission for said team to contact me and or members of my party to request testing
D. Should I have lied on this checkbox about my vaccination status, I open myself to legal liability of lawsuits from, but not limited to, infected cast members, infected park goers, and other guests of WDW who were determined by contact tracing to be in contact with me.
By checking this box NO I certify:
a. Disney assumes no liability for me or or members of our party should we contract COVID-19
b. Our names, addresses, and listed phone numbers will be automatically transferred to our database for priority contacting by the state of FL for purposes of contact tracing and requests to undergo COVID-19 testing, should a case of COVID=19 be reported in Walt Disney World.
c. I assume all legal and criminal liabilities, as this checkbox invokes a terms of agreement with WDW Company
“
Do I know the legal ramifications or if this is allowed? Not sure. But I feel like the threat of a lawsuits by private parties would be enough to scare people from lying. No need for passport. Just know if you lie, test positive, and it’s discovered. You could be sued. Maybe if its reworded. Basically, I feel most people would be honest. And the few that aren't; one lawsuit or criminal neglect charge will be enough to dissuade the diehards.
Even if the contact tracers can't get the person to get tested, a good lawyer representing a client could subpoena these records and investigate. again, it's more of "threat of" approach then actual "nail them to the wall" approach.
