Except this would be punishing kids and people who legitimately can't get the vaccine as well. Kids aren't going to want to be tested every single day of their vacation or to be excluded from areas because they can't get the vaccine.
I was with you right up until Pizzagate. Come on now, you know that one is true.
Why would WDW want to do this? You cannot equate the cruise clientele with the theme park clientele 1:1 . If WDW did this they would lose a large paying guest population. Again, I ask, why would they want to do this?
Some international travel destinations, and cruises, are opting for testing at the beginning of a trip and at the end of the trip (although I believe the test at the end is required for re-entry to the U.S.).
Except no one wants to have covid vaccine side effects while on their trip.
Agreed. I think the discussion needs to be about those who won’t, rather than can’t.
Maybe, maybe not, but if they did it at Disney Springs, then they might get locals to do it.
I dont think it really ever was about those who can't. Most people acknowledge there are cases like that.
The person above was talking about testing everyone who isn't vaccinated every day of their vacation, including kids. That's extreme.
I didn’t feel it was necessary to stipulate that I wasn’t talking about those who are too young or for other valid medical reasons can’t get the vaccine. That’s not really who we’re talking about, and for the most part that’s not who’s filling the hospitals.
I am almost to the point of agreeing with them on it. The level of political stupidity that has infected what should be a Medical Issue is enough to make me want to cry or scream! Of course those with VALID medical issues should be exempted. Not just I am afraid of needles or mind control.....
Give one day's admission in trade for a vaccination. Doesn't need to be same day, just a voucher. If both WDW and Universal did that, they'd likely get many to partake. I know it's the same as the "100 dollar" offer, but it still would attract more, I bet.
When I specifically asked you if this includes kids, you said yes. Broadwsy's policy of kids coming to the theater means they must show a negative covid test if they're too young to be vaccinated, as does the cruise line industry's policy I believe. One test is reasonable. You can't possibly think testing everyday is reasonable. They don't even do that in medical care facilities.
I said that when the vax was approved for children the policy should extend to them. I stand by that. And yes, testing every day or every other day for those who can safely get the vax but refuse it is fine. Part of the point is to make it unpleasant.
Do you have data to back that up?
NYT reports, as of the end of may, about 25% of US hospital personnel arent vaccinated
