We were at WDW almost that whole week. Today is the end of our 14-day watch period for symptoms; so far, so good.
Yes many people who went to Disney will test positive. Really wish he had not gotten on a plane while coughing up blood.
This man had health issues and a compromised immune system. Horrible tragedy.
Technically that doesn’t matter...reports show the virus can live on plastic and metal surfaces for 3-4 days, so technically if you rode the same ride 3-4 days after him you could have been exposed.I'd sure like to know what days he visited which parks...my wife and I were there that week!
I am of the belief that basically almost all the cm that worked from January to March have been exposed or infected with the virus, the body reacts to it and defends itself against it which is why we haven't seen a lot of cm reporting symptoms strong enough that need to go to the hospital. One of the main reasons is underlying conditions from those who have died, I'm sure numbers of infected here will continue to grow as testing becomes available

My point is that most people's body actually can fight this, the one's that need to be hospitalized usually have underlying conditions. Here in Florida most cases have come from someone who has traveled, international travel season was huge this year during December and January.I'm not sure about that. Even though most of the deaths are in 60+ here in the US at least we are still seeing a lot of younger people still needing to go to the hospital. If all or most CMs were already exposed I think we'd have heard of some of them needing to be hospitalized... and "Disney CM at hospital for corona" would be a big headline.

The Chinese have done an early study and found that people with type A blood are more susceptible to the virus and type O is more resistant. However, the sample size is still too small to rule out it being a coincidence.
I understand Disney wants to open their parks as quickly as possible for their financial benefit, but those of us with APs can't go without risking our lives and as it stands, our passes might only be extended for the length the park is closed and not until after a vaccine makes it safe for us to return. Their financial greed is forcing us to throw away up to around a thousand dollars...several thousands of dollars for some families at a time when many are loosing their jobs.
APs need to be given a choice to suspend our pass until after we have access to a vaccine or to reactivate the pass once the parks open for those who are willing to take the risk or have already beaten the virus.
