So true, those arguing that, are stuck in March 2020
Oh wow, so wishing death upon me now.
Succumb to the virus? Really?
Covid is most certainly NOT an order of magnitude worse than the flu at this point. Not even half an order.

To be fair isnt you calling the policy disastrous also political? I mean that would require context as to what is success vs failure and you have not provided such.
About six months since the day the world shut down, we are at just under 200k deaths (remember when Barbara Brix said we could have 120k-250k deaths and people scoffed at her?). Now, on average, the flu kills about 34k people per year. Bat its highest in the last 50 years, it killed about 61k. 1200 people are currently dying every day from COVID (a relative lowpoint). Extrapolate that over the next six months, and you have a total 1 year death toll from COVID of 419,000, a full order of magnitude higher than almost all flu seasons except the most recent one. That's assuming that we continue at our current pace for the next six months. Most epidemiologists think we will hit at least one more wave, maybe two, in the winter months, so by next March the total could be ~600k.
Let's just all block them and get back on topic.This thread has turned into a train wreck because of these 2 dolts. Completely off topic. One of them is banned from multiple other threads already so they spew their garbage on this one.
Hi everyone, how do we block dolts? Is that the ignore feature? Does that mean if they post, I won't see it?Let's just all block them and get back on topic.
There's no debate. It's science. There aren't two sides. And with that, I christen my ignore list. Bye.
Yeah, ignore. I'd never used it and forgot the name. And yes, they disappear (unfortunately only from your view...)Hi everyone, how do we block dolts? Is that the ignore feature? Does that mean if they post, I won't see it?
If this is true, I second SoFlo -- maybe we should all Ignore those dolts, so we can get this thread back on track.

And in breaking news Florida will allow bars to open with limited operation Monday. Should be ripe and done just in time for your trip.I have a trip in 60 days but I must have spent this past evening seeing and reading how scientists and doctors are warning of a bigger spike because of upcoming winter season, more than anything Fauci is cautioning now that bars and dining restaurants are causing spikes, so now they are considering another shut down to bars and sit in/restaurants, nothings set in stone from what i read, but as I see Disney news this week, everything’s been favorable for the upcoming trip, savi’s reopening, mini xmas decorations, I’m hoping by the time I fly out(omgggg tickets are dirt cheap!!!) and the magic your way pricing, Things will be back to the new normal I hope... We will see
Still in the back of mind i am worried now that they upgraded hurricane season to Hyper season
but at the end of day I feel by the time I fly the hours will be back to normal, maybe parades, i could do away with fireworks, but the main reason I get suckered to go in at the parks is for that sweet, sweet merch!![]()

Yep...early summer tactics in a more ripe virus season...should work out great...againAnd in breaking news Florida will allow bars to open with limited operation Monday. Should be ripe and done just in time for your trip.
I think it’s possible. If the demand goes up there could be a holiday bump which could lead to increased hours, at least back to summer hours and MK open to 7 or maybe even 8. I wouldn’t count on anything more. It’s dark by shortly after 5 after daylight savings so that would give us 2 to 3 hours of darkness. As the CFO said in her speech yesterday they don’t expect to have more than half their hotel rooms open any time soon. Right now the crowds they are getting on weekends is heavily skewed towards locals and AP holders. They need more people to be willing to fly in to get a meaningful bump in attendance and that’s just not happening now. The FL case trend is/was looking good, but it seems to have plateaued at a level too high to get off of the travel quarantine list. As Christine McCarthy reiterated again yesterday, the spike in cases in July caused a negative impact on park attendance, specifically people who chose not to fly to FL. That needs to change to get park hours back up.Anyone else feel like they may extend MK hours to 8 or so for Christmas? They could probably pay for it with all the light up crap they could sell...
Whose science? There is no single opinion on the "science".
