According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Florida now falls under the “moderate” tier of community transmission of COVID-19, the only state in the nation below the “substantial” and “high” tiers.
When it comes to individual counties, Orange County, Florida — home to Universal Orlando Resort and most of Walt Disney World Resort — is also in the “moderate” tier. Some of Walt Disney World Resort also resides in Osceola County, which currently falls under the “substantial” tier.
Current guidance on the CDC website states the following:
“Unvaccinated people in Orange County, Florida should wear a mask in public, indoor settings. Mask requirements might vary from place to place. Make sure you follow local laws, rules, regulations or guidance.”
“Everyone in Osceola County, Florida should wear a mask in public, indoor settings. Mask requirements might vary from place to place. Make sure you follow local laws, rules, regulations or guidance.”
Currently, all guests are required to wear approved face coverings indoors at Walt Disney World Resort. Guests at Universal Orlando Resort are recommended to wear face coverings indoors, but not required.

Well, the majority of WDW is in Orange County so it would qualify??? Celebration is in Osceola.
Isn’t Universal only recommending masks, not requiring?
yes
Good. Now require vax or test for everyone and remove mask requirement. If you’re afraid of vax, stay home. Sick of having to mask because of the stupid anti-vaxxers.
surrree
next week they will change their mind
I don’t understand when the Biden administration will ever learn? A second wave is ravaging Europe right now, and the administration just opened up international travel to the US from Europe. Big mistake in my opinion, just when we turned a corner on this thing. Be careful everyone. Stay safe
Riiight, Florida under DeSatan isnt skewing numbers or anything.
Wish Disney was like Universal! You can’t protect us from everything. End this Disney.
Then go to Universal.
I would but nothing there interests me
The problem with Theme parks is that guests are from everywhere. You can’t base safety on the rate of the state.
