Bob Chapek: "..likely going to require is masks for both the casts and the guests..."

A very self-centered attitude. You are putting others at risk. If you don’t want to wear a mask, then stay home!

Yes I am for #1 Wanting to breathe and #2 Wanting food and prescription meds for myself and DH who also needs a lung transplant

That is a very self-centered attitude also. Some people can't wear the mask as mentioned previously. Don't throw rocks in glass houses. If you you have an issue with it, then you can stay home too.

I've not been wearing one when shopping - still furloughed so no work - not because I don't believe they work but because as an asthmatic I simply can't breathe in one. I have tried in the house sitting still with a home-made one but ran out of air and felt suffocated after less than a minute. Loosening it meant if fell off face so useless.
I really hope a vaccine is developed so normality can resume.

I'm not sure how things work when someone from another country comes to the US, but I have just learned that ADA has said that people with a disability cannot be forced to wear a mask. I don't know if the ADA applies to you if you come to WDW or not though.

Thank you, thank you and thank you

Over here they are saying that anyone who has breathing difficulties such as asthma, COPD etc or anyone who cannot remove a mask on their own should not wear one as it could be potentially dangerous.
We're not planning to return to WDW or indeed go anywhere that is more than an hour's drive from the transplant hospital until DH as had his transplant ( because you never know when that phone call will come ) and has the all clear from the doctors. A celebratory trip is planned but won't be until at least 2022.
Of course if I develop symptoms I will not be going out either and will have to figure out a way to get food and meds.

You two do have to be very careful. If the call comes, you don't want him to be sick with anything and miss the opportunity.

I don't even know my neighbors name. Plus, i question the use anyways, short of wearing the appropriate masks that you can either correctly clean/reuse or have disposable options. Which doesn't apply to man.

You are so right. And wearing masks is so stupid. They are nothing but a collector for every germ one comes across. All of these enlightened people wearing masks are doing themselves more harm than good. They touch surface after surface then touch the mask- everyone, so don't claim you don't. Nd if you eat/drink, what do you with the mask? Dispose of it and put on a new one? Put on the same one.

Here is fault in your logic. If you want me to wear a mask to protect you, then its your problem, not mine. If you are high risk or just scared, stay home. YOU want to inconvenience others.

She wasn't the one saying that people HAVE to wear a mask. She was saying there are only recommended where she lives and that she can't wear one due to respiratory issues. Someone else stated "A very self-centered attitude. You are putting others at risk. If you don’t want to wear a mask, then stay home!"

Yeah, the glove people kill me. Like, what are you doing?

Disney submitted their reopening plan today, and masks are going to be required

If you think you know more than the medical experts who say that wearing a mask helps cut down on the spread of this virus, I'd like to know what medical school you attended and what state gave you a license to practice. Masks are required in Mass. but NOT if you have a medical condition that would interfere in your breathing. Seems to be working here.

About all I have to add is I had Covid 19. My entire family had it back in the very beginning in early March. It was a joke. My allergies are worse than that virus. I had every single one of the asymptomatic symptoms right down to the weird little rash. I haven't worn a mask yet and have no intentions of doing so. At this point no one is sure how long the anti-bodies last or if you are even likely to ever become ill at all from it again. I will take my chances. I can handle a couple of days of achy legs and a light cough for a week again if it happens. With all that said, we aren't in the high risk group so we shouldn't have to shelter in place and hide in our homes......life goes on.

Anyway, that is why I will not go to WDW if a mask in required. It is just nonsense and an inconvenience I am not willing to participate in. I am also in the camp that believes if you are in the high risk group or just scared to death because you watch CNN, don't go.

Visiting WDW has ALWAYS had a list of inconvenirnces anbd requirements. People have long said they would stay home if they had to book dining in advance etc.
My adult son and I planned visits to WDW and each morning somebody in the family woul ask, "what's on for today?" and we'd say, "an EPCOT day that invcludes Akershus after Frozen Ever After ..."
Noone ever said, "what if I ain't in the mood for...".
When we walked 'across the bridge' tohave our Christmas Eve dinner at BOG everyone was in the mood.
we put in some flexibility for changes like a all day rain at BB etc.
Many of us remember packed busses after fireworks and I would sometimes say out loud, "we're all in this together".
I'd like to be avoid the whole plan ahead and reserve eveything including the park entrance itself BUT I don't want to pout at home.
