It’s frustrating when we know DLR can open safely despite these external factors. If they could do it in Florida with the cases they had going, DL can do it no problem.
The biggest difference between DLR and DW is the surrounding area. Orange County FL and Orange County CA are roughly the same size geographically, but the population in Orange County CA is almost three times the size of FL. That’s an extra two million people. I think one of the concerns is how quickly an outbreak of the virus will spread in that densely populated area when a large attraction like Disneyland opens and starts pulling in people from areas that don’t have the virus under control. And when that happens, does Disneyland shutdown again?
I live in San Diego and we had a HUGE influx of tourists from surrounding areas when our county had the virus somewhat under control and started opening up in July. Then everything had to be shut down again. Now that we are the only county in Southern California with more things open than the surrounding areas (with college campuses open and a holiday weekend on top of it all), I fully expect us to be moved back to purple within a week or two of this weekend.
