The T-Rex, Landry's story is interesting as in wasn't covered by any national news or any news for that matter that I could find other than social media posts and Disney blogs reporting on the social media post. You think if there was a story and coverup at least one valid news source would pick it up. Might have missed it though, haven't seen all the news sources. Makes me wonder of the veracity of it.

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

Do you know where they are staying, we need to avoid that place.
To be fair you can find any opinion on twitter and reddit.

I know but they said no one was being loud about universal being open so I pointed out that this is a Disney site.

There's' so much going on in the world and the news cycle changes so rapidly I doubt any outbreak at WDW is going to get more than a blip on the national news. Disney is also not a company the media goes after.
I agree on national, but the local news would have picked it up for sure.

All it takes is a handful of CM’s to feel unsafe, and it will be spun on this site as “CM’s feel unsafe” .

Disagree. Here in PA whenever a cast member sneezes it seems to make the news. Don’t know about other parts of the country but it seems weekly there’s a report about Disney.

Maybe your local newscasters have a Disney obsession.

Just posted this in the other thread in case some don’t venture over. Texas medical Association put this chart out.

Disney World is massively popular in the Northeast. Some of the biggest states for park attendance are NJ/NY/PA. You can’t drive down the road without seeing either an AP or DVC mickey eats sticker on someone’s car. I’m sure the same cannot be said for a lot of places, especially the further you get from FL. There is definitely some local bias.
Disney news is news to many newscasters nationally and worldwide with probably the exception of countries to visit and one may not return safely.
Just curious, do you think Disney could ever shut down again if cases keep spiking?

That was just asked in a other thread. He was wondering if they would cancel each other out.

I never watch local news so I couldn’t tell you, but WDW is not that popular here. My husband has CNBC on during the market hours....and the national news is covering other things.

It has been my experience that you can't argue with that logic.... ; )

That's a nice graphic. I wonder if the level "8" for an amusement park is factoring in the required face coverings, social distancing and hopefully other measures that Disney will be taking, perhaps making it a little less risky. I realize though that there is an inherent risk when ever there are larger than normal crowds.
