I just seen a post saying Breaking news that orange county Florida has been given the ok to reopen all the theme parks. He did say that each park will be responsible for coming up with there own plans to make sure everyone is safe. Do you think that this is true and realistic. The person giving the info thought that the parks would open sooner than he expected..... MCO is down 96% for people arriving and need to get these attractions open.

I just want to caution the discussions on possible COVID treatments. Let's try to stick to the topics as best as possible.

Since a therapeutic is one of the requirements for Newsome allowing places like Disneyland to reopen, isn't the FDA's pending approval of a emergency therapeutic treatment sticking to the topic at hand?

Orange County has said Disney and other theme parks can basically open as they wish when safely but no they haven’t said hey come on and open tomorrow or something.

The black lines over the text usually mean that those parts are not included in a final report.

Was not there when i copied it just when i pasted it..lol

So say you book a resort room... what if you cant get in the park.
I have memories of trying to get a boarding pass and not being able to... i dont know if i could do that to my kids they were heartbroke over one ride cant imagine a whole park

I just don’t want a full fledged discussion on whether drugs/treatments work, and rabbit holes that go along with that. The discussion is valid but should be kept to a minimum. This isn’t Facebook.

A lot of people think they will open when given the “ok”. I personally am not convinced that will be the case.

And those of us who are neutral and just waiting to see if they open so we can see the "new norm" and the effectiveness of the new rules. I'd love to go at the end of July like my current plans are... but, it would be nice to see what things actually look like if they open even mid June and give us later folks a chance to peak it : )

I agree there are plenty of ppl in the wait & see camp too. I was referring more to the pp’s comments about the optics of it. I think the neutral ppl are still in the camp of not caring when disney opens. I guess i should say there are 2 camps, those who think disney should stay closed indefinitely til things are “better” & everyone else.

They can’t just open when given the go ahead either. They need to bring employees back, train, practice any new procedures, etc.

The same people who thought the closure was 2 weeks and the parks were opening April 1st because nobody said otherwise.

And get food supplies back.

Yep. It takes time to reopen. I’m looking to head back into the office in two weeks. We’re taking things nice and slow. The last thing we want is some coming in sick. I think that’s the new normal. Instead of coming in sick and doing your best, the new response is to not come in at all.

yep. I also think they will monitor things at first, how things are going in Florida and even in other states that start opening. Last thing WDW wants is to open and then later close again if a massive outbreak or spike happens. It would be worse than staying closed a bit longer.

that should have always been the normal. You should never go into work sick and risk infecting others.

Understood and completely agree.

So Disney has been given the green light to open but have not made an announcement. For all those that think Disney is just a money hungry Corp, there would have been an immediate come on in. This company cares about its reputation. When they do make an announcement it will be carefully worded and with specific guidelines.

Well surely they'll at least wait until Desantis is done speaking, haha

All FL Counties will open gradually (slowly) beginning on Monday, (May 4) except for Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, they are not yet ready to open just yet.

From the Press conference..

Agree. But we all know that's not reality. Many employees more or less force their sick employees to work. And many others can't afford to take time off without pay.

Yeah, but the truth is how sick? Do I have a cold or allergies? I probably have IBS, so any kind of stress gives me diareah or sometimes I ate too much chocolate, etc. If I stayed home for every mild illness/maybe not illness I wouldn't be employable. Or one semester I had respiratory issues that would not go away(antibiotics galore).was probably allergies because of the construction (paint, carpet glue) about a month after it ended my symptoms went away. Pretty sure it was allergies
