It's because of states' rights. We are very regional in our behavior.
I see masks at Disney being voluntary very, very soon. Happy Wednesday to all!
Seems like data was incorrect per the Mayor, so may not be as soon as you seem to think.
5.2% and it needs to be at 5%. That can be reached by next week, as it is a running daily tally (14 day positivity rate). I look for Memorial Day to be a realistic target (for Orange County as a whole) and July 4th for Disney's implementation of a voluntary mask statement. Having July 4th be an "Independence Day from Covid" would play very well...as fireworks spring to life over World Showcase Lagoon...
Amazing what happens when given a choice.
That I can see. Some of your posts recently have made it seem like you think it would happen like next week.
I do think it will happen next week for Orange County - Disney will take that opportunity to put into place their preparation for lifting masks. July 4th weekend can be a HUGE test weekend for them. Oct 1st looms large for Disney and they will not be caught flatfooted or unprepared for the 50th. The sooner the requirements are lifted and they can see how it goes, the better for them ramping things up to 100% by Oct 1st.
I'm pretty sure there are no Anti-Mask posts. However, there are choice and fact posts...wear the mask if you want, others will choose not to, as per the science. Funny, everyone wanted the science to be the factor that we all follow - where has that cause gone now?
Please engage...it brings to light all sides...oh, fyi - it's a mask thread.
Haven't really seen many people disagreeing with the science. But some posts seem to be implying that it should've been a choice all along, which is absurd IMO. And goes to show that it was right to not be a choice many places.
When does choice become a decision between freedom or personal rights. I totally agree that there needs to be a basis for people to to understand the whys and why nots - that is supposed to be where the CDC rings in - where science is presented with facts to the public. People can make choices based on facts, unfortunately that is something that has been lagging behind politics. The facts have been there for quite some time but yet a lot of people seem to just now be surprised by them. Why is this? It's sometimes easier to have someone decide for you - at least when you don't have the facts. I choose to decide for myself, given the facts. This country was founded on choice...let's not forget that.
When the choice you make affects the health of others. I'll say it 100x, the fact that people think wearing a mask through the fall/winter should've been a choice is ridiculously absurd. Having the choice now, based on the science and facts, is okay by me.
Again, choice by individuals based on facts and science. It's hard to argue allowing people to live their lives how they see fit, while not effecting others in a detrimental way.
