Honestly. I’m glad this kind of “settles” the speculation for Florida

(we all know other states could sign something requiring these passports)

dr. Fauci has been clear from the beginning that it should not be mandated (instead they’ve put a lot of money into marketing).

“They are actually damaging the trust in public health, leading to fewer vaccinations,” said Dr. Martin Kulldorff, who is a Professor at Harvard Medical School said at a Florida round table about vaccine passports.

This is so frustrating and I will try not to get into the political aspect of vaccines or mandating them, but I am not thrilled with banning businesses from being able to require vaccination proof. To me, I would prefer (feasible or not) Disney (or universal, cruises, etc) to mandate vaccine proof or recent negative tests until my kids are able to get safely vaccinated. It’s the next step in cutting the legs off of a return to normalcy.

I agree on many fronts. First, there is no point debating any of this here (or anywhere really) as it really is pointless. Second, I too find it frustrating. After many canceled Disney trips, I so am hoping that my family can go in August. I anticipate that my wife and I will be vaccinated by then, but our three kids (11, 8, 7) will not be.

What I do find kind of ironic about this story is that the FLA governor doesn’t want government to allow or support vaccine passports because it infringes on an individual’s rights. However, he is perfectly fine with forbidding a privately owned business from making their own choice on requiring a vaccine passport. Seems circular to me.

I JUST WANT TO GO TO DISNEY WORLD LIKE IT’S 2019!!!!

You should go to Disney. Your kids actually have a 99.97% survival rate if they contract Covid. They have a much higher risk of severe disease or death from the flu. If the adults in your party are vaccinated, there should be no hesitation. However, this is your personal choice. Others should not be forced into vaccines if they do not want one.

thanks. I know the stats and I appreciate the vote of confidence. We very likely will go in August (assuming my wife and I get vaccinated by then).

But - please let me be clear. While I want everyone to get vaccinated because I think that is what will help beat this thing, I never suggested that people should be forced to get vaccinated. I also think Disney, along with cruise lines, concert venues, airlines, restaurants, etc. etc., should be allowed to only accept vaccinated patrons if they chose to. It’s purely a business decision that each private business can make on their own.

If Disney were to require proof of vaccination, it would not “force” anyone to get vaccinated. It may compel someone, but it would still be their choice.

But I think it’s unlikely Disney would require it to visit Disney World. Now a Disney Cruise might be different. We shall see.
