Do you think that Disney world will reclose its gates due to the rising number of COVID cases in Florida and around the country?

We fail at number one with an obesity rate at 40%.

and it appears one of the reasons the US is having so much trouble with Covid as opposed to other countries and lockdowns were not a factor, study published yesterday

The findings of this country level analysis on COVID-19 related health outcomes suggest that low levels of national preparedness, scale of testing, as well as population characteristics such as obesity, advanced age and higher per capita GDP are associated with increased national case load and mortality.

That’s a correlation we’ve all noticed.

You lost me after the first sentence.

Who or what do you think created the economy? Or do you believe that it existed independently for an indeterminate period of time and then humans evolved to play their roles within it?

No one is making them work there. Just devils advocate.

I’m not sure I understand your question. There’s always been illness and death.

 

[legwand77]

I am glad some State/County Dashboards are beginning to note that the dashboard deaths are not all Covid deaths but deaths with Covid too and are only reporting date of death, and not when the death is entered into the system. Much better way to display the data. Florida should do the same. otherwise you get people reporting that 140 people died of corona yesterday.

As an example yesterday AZ reported 134 deaths, 77 of those deaths were from the previous weeks/months

I’m still confused. Death and illness have always been here. Someone dies every 12 seconds in this country. 99% of the population does not have Covid.

Remember when this thread was a discussion about whether WDW would close again?

Those were the days....

 

[legwand77]

Well I guess we know indicators are looking good when people start debates about the creation of economy.

I never knew that was a debatable thing.

I wonder how long this thread will stay open? At some point people will have to accept it’s not closing.

Not only that but openly rooting for it to close.

Probably you need to consult a reputable economist

What because an ambulance driver said that?

The ambulance driver used to be a Disney bus driver.

A harder lockdown, extended for another 2-6 weeks, would have basically wiped the virus out of the state.

If they had just reopened non-essential stores, and left beaches closed, and policed restaurants acting like clubs at night, we would have been fine, and less economically devastated than closing everything.

I wouldn’t go into them. As you and many others (or, let’s just call them “the blob”) have said, go to Disney. It’s safer there!
