Walt Disney World Reopens in Orlando, Fl

Description (Dublin Core)

All Disney parks had to shut down in March of 2020 due to the Coronavirus. After 3 months, they decided to open. This was not without controversy, however, because at that point in time, Florida was leading the nation in the number of COVID cases. At this writing, they broke the record for the highest number of cases anywhere in the world for one day, and that was even before 9am.

Meanwhile, the park looked almost empty. The characters didn't touch or come within 10 feet of the children, and social distancing seemed to be enforced. It is the "New Normal" for the world's happiest place.
