Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

[Sirwalterraleigh]

I can see ice bags sales and extra strength Tylenol sales improving when temperature checks start happening at the theme parks.

That’s good...

The ticket stands on 192 will be selling advil for $11 a pill

Remember a “peak”’is just that...the slope on the other side of the mountain is at least as long as the climb. The Washington model being relief on assumed normalization after the death rate falls to 0.3% I believe...that’s not close at this point.

And the slope on the other side of the mountain isn't always at the same steepness of the side you climbed up. People expect the slope to go down just like it went up, but we're seeing evidence that it simply isn't the case in countries like France, Italy and Spain, and even New York.

I was gonna mention that...chances are the down side is much longer. The spike scares the crap out of people and they overcompensate. They get bored/wreckless/lazy on the descent.

So what’s the main hurdle for us here?

(That’s a softball question for everyone)

I really don’t see Americans willing to go along with the QR code and monitoring. I’m already hearing about churches and small businesses in my area hiring lawyers about the forced closures.

But.... I’m surprised we’ve gone this far with it.

1. “Americans” are no longer in control. Life kinda changed 3/1/20
2. Where and who are they going to sue? Even if they “win”...nothing changes. You can have church that the public health officials then tag/track everyone from the minute they cross back onto a public or tax paying lot.

We have some lovely parting gifts for them...

My 86 year old uncle went to Aldi (grocery store) he observed most people did not have masks/gloves or maintain the distance. People are not complying now they sure in heck once there is drop more people will slack off even more-- my fear is a second wave of infections. Good luck with Disney enforcing any mask rule. One of the big complaints prior to covid is CMs didn't enforce anything

Ok...back to throwing darts at the “opening date” sweepstakes.

Dates in 2022 are starting to look pretty good.

With some predicted reports that Florida will peak in a few weeks? And to open by June 1? I highly doubt it.

Florida news conference just said it’s expected to peak in a week. I guess I trust my local reporting of what’s actually happening on the ground in our state.

I hope you’re correct but Walt Disney WORLD is not just a Florida problem/blessing/decision.

How is any hoop we might have to jump through: masks, temp checks, swabs, clean bill of health apps, etc... more inconceivable then a nearly national lockdown for months... or even longer if we refuse to jump through those hoops?

This is the question I attempted to answer.

But please just stop quoting me, because this discussion isn't going anywhere.

A quick internet search will show everyone who cares that many research studies have been published on MERs and other viruses every year, including papers on vaccine research.

See: Journal of Virology, Journal of Infection in Developing countries, NIH, NIAID, Nature Communications, International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, Virology Journal, and a host of other journals on virology if you want to know more.

I replied to your comment that

"I don't have any kind of inside knowledge or anything... but I find it hard to believe ALL SARS and MERS vaccine research ended. "

If that was an attempt to answer then I think you might want to think twice before answering a question because the statement I just quoted didn't answer anything.

 

[Polynesia]

Agreed. This is going to be risky for most businesses to open up. Precautions will be necessary. If I have to wear a mask to enjoy some things in life I will do it.

IF parks reopen but water parks do not, I wonder if we can get credits/refunds on tickets where we purchased the water parks+ option?

Hopefully at least one water park will open at some point this summer.

Please, just give it a rest.

Well I just got an email from Cedar Point today, my season pass has been extended for 2021. No way would they do that unless they thought the closure is going to extend well into the summer. That is a huge cost to the company and a huge hit to their revenue.

It went from middle May to early May to April and back to May. Very inconsistent. Well just see what actually happens

Sure, of course - just giving you a reference as to where the time frame came from to the reply you quoted.
