Ummm... How do you think humanity got over every other plague in history?? The bacteria or virus ran through the population and herd immunity was reached. So it is not only possible with a vaccine...
It’s been a century since the last plague. A time when people were just coming out of the horse and buggy stage and were just starting to operate automobiles.
We live in a far, far different, absolutely unrecognizable world today, comparatively, with much higher populations and infinitely more interaction between them.
Basically, today, either everyone stays home, or there is a vaccine. Unless either one happens totally, we are dealing with this for a long time.
That’s one of the reasons I continue to be shocked about some of what I read regarding WDW here in some other posts. I think folks will find public opinion right now is more on the side of “I can’t believe they are even open” and “who in their right mind would travel there, of ALL places?” right now. Not “when are they going to remove that mask requirement, I can’t wait to go!”
I mean, I just don’t see it myself...we can’t even consider to go to a movie theater (not that many of us want to), but stepping foot in WDW right now? A place designed to cram as many people in as possible traveling from who knows where?
And even if I forgot all that - I had some magic invisible suit to protect me and my family - I still wouldn’t be going to WDW - the still premium prices and reduced experiences (hours, shows, food availability, no nighttime events) just wouldn’t be worth it.
