But i mean It's Next to LA right .. it's going to happen sadly . and im immuno compromised with diabetes with kidney transplant and live about 20mins from Disneyland a bit freaked out atm.

It is the first time Disney will close both Disneyland in California and Disney World in Florida since the Sept. 11 attacks.

What a wild day. Reactions range from
HOW DARE THEY CLOSE DISNEYLAND!?!?!? I WILL BE SO ANGRY!!
to
HOW DARE DISNEYLAND REMAIN OPEN!?! I AM SO ANGRY!!
Maybe if each side was just a little . . . less . . . angry?
I mean, these are first world, privileged problems. My vacation! My leisure! I have a blog to run!
It is also important to keep the realities of the virus in our minds, and not overreact and panic.
My whole family vacation is currently in limbo, all the planning, etc. but I have
it in perspective. Unless we go full Planet of the Apes or Zombie Apocalypse, I'll have a chance to go again. Or not.
I just don't know right now. I have to be OK with that. At least we are currently healthy.

Why is Disney being singled out? Seems to me that if there's public pressure on Disney to close why isn't there similar anxiety over shopping malls, market places, national parks, large hotels, etc? Fremont Street in Vegas and Times Square in NY probably see as many visitors on a Friday night as Disneyland does in a day.

For those wondering about what would happen to employees, they will be paid during the closure.

Didn't he just report that went to the park earlier today? Hmmmm......
Hopefully he doesn't need to edit his signature soon too!

It's the right thing to do at this time. There's a false safety bubble in So Cal right now due to our lack of confirmed cases thanks to a lack of testing.

This won't make them shut up, nothing will. Everything is a problem now, if you do what people ask you to do they find something new to complain about immediately. It makes social media and just interacting with people in general exhausting, you can never win anything. Some people will continue to complain that it took them too long and that they possibly allowed more people to spread it. Some people will complain the parks should remain open and now their trip is ruined and Disney should let them decide if they want to go to the parks amid the pandemic.
