Hey all
Got here today around 3 pm. I was told we were around family #40 to get here. And that they severely limited total number of guests in the building. We spent the afternoon in the pool. At most there were around a dozen families? Most of the time there were only 2-3 other families in the pool. My wife went to Contempo Cafe to get dinner. Only two others there. Contemporary is closed to guests. So everything feels very safe and quiet from a coronavirus perspective.
A little more on that....I’m a geriatrician who works in an academic hospital and nursing home in Philadelphia. We’ve been hit hard with COVID in our city and we’ve learned a lot. We were able to shut down an outbreak in my NH for example. Lessons I’ve learned is that mask wearing is the key thing to keep everyone (guests and staff) safe and cleaning matters. Along with distancing. It is my job to keep patients and staff safe so I look around Disney as if I’m in my NH.
I couldn’t be more impressed. All Disney staff are masked and wearing masks perfectly (one guy had it a bit low). Multiple staff are dedicated to environmental cleaning. I see people wiping down high tough surfaces constantly.
Every guest is wearing masks, even kids. Overall it’s a great culture. Even in my hospital and NH I catch people cutting corners all the time. Taking mask breaks, scooting the mask off their nose, only wearing it around some people and not others. I’ve been watching the staff and everyone-housekeepers, life guards, front desk staff have surgical masks and are wearing them properly. From personal experience that is a crazy amount of training to get people to do this right and persist at it.
Guests have to do their part to and the guests right now seem like all veterans. I was told that too. So everyone is wearing their mask and staying apart.
I was worried hearing about the surge in FL. When we traveled to GA and stayed in a Hilton property no one (staff) was masked over the weekend on our drive down. I really am impressed.
The one thing that Disney can not control is the overall spread in FL. If it surges bad enough it will affect their staff. But as long as they are masked, danger to guests will be significantly lessened. I hope that the staff are masked when interacting with each other in break rooms. Obviously I have no idea if they are, but that’s another potential weak spot.
I’ll update this later!
