That is a ridiculous statement to make. Also Disney has never been "Shut Down" They choose to close for a period of time.

Sounds like fun and relatively safe!
I'll be bummed to miss my bday at WDW (end of August) since they and I are both turning 50, so we may just do a quickie resort trip with a nice dinner.
It's a good way off, so who knows what will happen by then?
Enjoy your trip.

Shut down and choose to close is the same thing. What is so ridiculous? They furloughed 40,000 cast members and locked the gates for quite awhile last year. Sounds like it shut down.

Florida has pretty much made it impossible to have a vaccine passport at this point so don't think we could see proof of vaccinations.
I personally think outdoors mandates are not necessary but I see those going sooner than indoors. The local mayor is really pushing for changes.
To be fair at this point even one traceable case will not shut them down. And i will emphasize traceable...
Ridiculous to say that if one case is traced back to them they would be "Shut Down".

#1 “Vaccine Makers Are Immune from Liability”
#1 “Vaccine Makers Are Immune from Liability”
The first point on Elliot’s list falls into the years’ old anti-vaccine trope category.
It is true that vaccine manufacturers are shielded from liability. Without this liability protection, vaccine manufacturers were unwilling to supply the government with vaccines. As part of a 1986 compromise, the United States created legal protections for vaccine manufacturers while also establishing the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), a federal claims court that settles cases of alleged vaccine injury. As explained in Science, “The VICP was established after lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers and healthcare providers threatened to cause vaccine shortages and reduce vaccination rates.”
While invoking this liability protection is a common anti-vaccine tactic, it is not a specific or novel argument unique to COVID-19 vaccines. All vaccines including the ones that have been required by schools for decades fall into this category.
'18 Reasons' Anti-Vax Post Filled With Reckless Falsehoods
A blog post riddled with misinformation is effectively a "Now That's What I Call Music" style anthology of debunked anti-vaccine and COVID-19 denial claims.

There has been a lot of propaganda spread on here that people keep spewing.

Who is "we" and who told you? Disney is following all local and state regulations for COVID, so if someone got infected there I can't see any way Disney get's held liable. Of course this all hinges on tracing an infection back to Disney which would be extremely difficult to do.

I don't think they'll be shut down but they'll be the lead story on every newspaper and tv news show in the country
If they haven't traced one back to Disney by now it is safe to say they aren't ever going to have one traced to back to them

I don‘t think people worry about social distancing anymore. Masks are still enforced, but think they‘re going to have a harder and harder time enforcing it. I can’t help you with the weather, but have a good time. Where are you staying?

Yes. There is a difference between thousands of people packed into the hub to watch fireworks or thousands of people spread out over 100+ (whatever the measurement is) acres of walkways. Just because the people are all in the Magic Kingdom, doesn't necessarily make it a "large group" for the purposes of potential viral spread.
Yankee Stadium sold out with 50,000 people is a large group. That same 50,000 people walking around the streets of the Bronx after the game isn't.

They can already guage somewhat. Legoland since its re-opening hasn't mandated masks anywhere in the park that was outdoors. You had no problem walking around the park sans mask. Masks are only required while in line for a ride, on a ride, and anywhere indoors. Seems to have worked out for them okay.

No hate? Understanding someone else’s point of view? Unity? On this forum? It will never happen.

Thanks so much! Saratoga Springs. I'm thinking we may be spending a lot of time at Blizzard Beach.

I think you are misunderstanding what they were trying to say. It's easy to do the way they typed it. I didn't take it to mean that someone would shut them down but rather that they would be closing again. Of course no one shut them down. No one actually thinks someone shut Disney World down other than Disney.

But that's Legoland. Don't they typically just have about five guests in the park?
Relax. I'm kidding.

Now that more and more states are lifting mask mandates everyone's turning into a Karen. Just posting a sign telling people they need to wear a mask isn't going to cut it. People do not pay attention to the signs. Somewhere on my hard drive I have a photo of a guy outside the restrooms at the entrance to Epcot smoking a cigarette with a sign literally 2 inches above his head on the wall saying no smoking. They're going to have to lift the mask mandate completely pretty soon or they will be fighting tiny battles all over the park all day long. People just don't have common sense and they refuse to just listen to an inanimate object like a sign telling them what to do.
