News Walt Disney World theme parks increase capacity but see longer waits and less physical distancing

[Chi84]

I have seen many times when it's mentioned some one got Covid at Disney the usual answer is that they could have got it anywhere so you can't prove it. Just look at when I posted about that person from Disboards getting Covid at Disney. So many were quick to deny it could happen there. Saying he probably got it on the flight or anywhere else. He couldn't possibly get it from Disney.

I haven't seen many posts claiming that someone got COVID at Disney, although you are correct that the nature of the virus is such that people can get it pretty much anywhere and not be able to prove it was a specific place - especially when a person is traveling to get to a location.

I'm starting to think you don't know the difference between saying that someone could not be certain they got the virus at Disney and saying that it couldn't possibly happen there. Pointing out the lack of facts supporting a claim is not the same as denying it. I haven't seen any posts saying that the Disboards guy or the one on the plane (if he had COVID) could not possibly have gotten it at Disney.

How do we know they were at WDW and not Universal. So many people here go there instead.

The post in the other thread said they had Disney bags with them, but that doesn‘t mean they didn’t go to Universal too. There will most likely never be a true smoking gun guaranteeing someone was infected at WDW, however that doesn’t mean peoole aren‘t infected there either.

And we really have no clue that he didn't pick it up prior to the trip but we do know there were lots of folks exposed regardless. Which is why Disney has that nice sign out front of all entrances that there is an "inherit risk of Covid-19" by entering.

I declare, here and now for all to read, that I did not get Covid-19 at WDW. (Do I get a prize, like an upgraded room for my next trip?)

We don't know for sure in regards to the guy on the plane. I do tend to believe the guy from Disboards saying he got it from there.

You get the WDWmagic unofficial, official Disney world cloth face covering which says on it “I went to WDW and all I came back with is this stupid mask...but at least I didn’t come back with Covid ” It comes in small, medium, large and giant meat head size for people like me.

Doesn't even mean they went to Disney

I can relate. The old XL mask was too small for me. Even the new XL can be a bit tight, depending on the cut, and I dislike the size of the straps.

I'm sure there has been people that have gotten Covid at WDW. Just like people have gotten it at Walmart or Costco.

Even Disney will tell you there is a chance of getting of Covid at Disney and they do it multiple times a day.

Does it even matter?

No it doesn't matter. It also puts to bed to notion that Disney and Universal is safer then going to Walmart.

The only real confirmation of anything is a man had a cardiac event on a flight, not even confirmed he died anywhere, might have been, but haven't looked that hard. If that person was C19+ it would be all over the news. @shyalabobmonsta and @JOlLaFlame are not my source of news, it might be confirmed he died later but hopefully not.

seems like it does to this board.

Could’ve been avoided by simply not traveling, like the experts recommend. Who woulda thunk?

A cardiac arrest could have been avoided by not traveling? That’s a new one.

I was referring to the person that died on the plane who had Covid symptoms. But you already knew that...needed your comment to fit your ridiculous narrative!

No, it doesn't. A couple data points either way tells very little.

Again we don’t know if the person died from Covid. We have no idea what they died from. Medical emergency’s happen all the time on planes. Sometimes people die on airplanes. You are using some antidotal story to say people should not fly and you say I have a ridiculous narrative. Hmm.
