Disney World puts COVID-19 vaccination policy on hold

Newsmax: Disney World near Orlando, Florida, operated by Walt Disney Co, has put its COVID-19 vaccination mandate on hold, a spokesperson said on Saturday.

The move comes amid the Biden administration’s workplace COVID-19 vaccine rule, which requires businesses with at least 100 employees to require staff get vaccinated against COVID-19 or be tested weekly and wear a face covering at work.

Local TV station Fox 35 was first to report https://bit.ly/3CEsu8R the news, citing a cast member at the resort complex.

A Disney spokesperson had earlier told Reuters by email: “We believe that our approach to mandatory vaccines has been the right one as we have continued to focus on the safety and well-being of our Cast Members and Guests.”

“At this point, more than 90% of active Florida-based Cast Members have already verified that they are fully vaccinated,” the spokesperson added.

Executives of Walt Disney Co, along with United Parcel Service Inc and others, met with White House officials last month to discuss President Joe Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine requirement plan for private-sector workers, amid concerns it could worsen labor shortages and supply-chain woes. more

  1. Funny, but if you look at a map of the US covid infection rates, there seems to be little correlation between mask/vax mandates and infections. For example, I am in Oklahoma at the moment, and NOBODY wears masks, and I suspect a minority has been jabbed, and yet, it has one of the lowest infection rates. Weird, huh?
