As a new COVID-19 variant, known as the Delta variant, is continuing to spread, Orange County, Florida, is now in “crisis mode”, according to Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings.

So, what does this mean for Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Orlando Resort.

As COVID cases rise in Florida, Orange County — where both Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando are located — is in “crisis mode”.

Per reporter Greg Angel on Twitter, Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings stated that they are now in “crisis mode” as nearly 1,000 new COVID cases are being reported each day:.

The Orange County Mayor urged Floridians to get vaccinated as a majority of the new COVID cases were of those who are not yet vaccinated:.

At the time of publication, neither of the major Orlando theme park resorts — Disney World and Universal — has released a statement or adjusted its current safety protocols.

Possible changes include a modification to the face mask policy, which is currently optional in both Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando, or social distancing.

Right now, Disney and Universal are not enforcing the use of face masks or social distancing at their Florida theme parks, but if Orange County, FL, makes changes to their policies or if their face mask recommendations become requirements, then perhaps we will see Disney Wold and Universal Orlando modify their health and safety guidelines, as well.

Do you think Disney World or Universal Orlando will make changes to its protocols
