It makes sense that Disney is mandating the masks. The large majority of their attendees are children of a younger age that can’t get vaccinated. Older kids, teens and young adults frequent universal. This group can be vaccinated. As a parent I will be wearing a mask despite being vaccinated at both universal and Disney no matter any mandate . It’s not a risk I’m willing to take for myself or my family. It’s the least I can do for my family and others, while still trying to enjoy ourselves. I work at a place where I have to wear a mask all day long in Humid conditions, it’s not inconvenient, you get used to it. Everyone else is just whining like little children. Some even use the excuse of oh I have trauma while wearing the mask. If you have trauma like that then you need to get some addition help with that trauma. Just like people with anxiety about flying etc…if you don’t want to feel that way you get help. If you’re not getting getting help then you actually enjoy living with the issue and are not quite fed up with limits it places on your life. Everyone not wearing a mask should be grateful to those that are.

it should be a matter of choice masks are useless anyway but if it makes gives you a sense of security by all means wear it but don't expect everyone else to wear one if they chose not to. no one is stopping you from wearing a mask. universal is way cheaper and way better anyhow

I'm glad the anti-mask crowd is choosing Universal. That means my family will be more safe from the maskholes at Walt Disney World.

It's a pandemic, people. Your selfishness and the fact that you don't give a darn about other people is NOT drawing me to your side. I'll be over here with my mask, and throwing people out of my business if they refuse to wear one. You are not welcome ANYWHERE near me if you are too much of a wimp to wear a piece of cloth over your mouth and nose.

We are booked into Universal in November. We have never worn masks, we never will and no one will make us. We chose Universal over Disney because of the policies. This is America and no company, govt or institution has the legal right to mandate masks, vaccines or lockdowns. We lived as normal as possible this whole time. We dumped our church b/c of masks. We dumped our dance studio b/c of masks. We only shop at no mask required businesses. We've entered the Parallel Economy that has started b/c of this Plandemic Insanity. It's good to know 2/3 of the people we will encounter at Universal will be normal freedom loving Americans who understand their Constitutional Rights cannot be stripped by the govt for ANY reason. We can't wait to have fun - me, my husband and two kids.

thats awesome hope you had a awesome time.

I would never go ANYWHERE right now without a mask. Being vaccinated doesnt keep you from getting it and being non symptomatic, passing it on to kids under 12 and others. The Delta is really having a hard hit for the young ones right now. You say above "based on our poll there is still 39% of people that either agree with mandatory mask wearing or are just Disney fans through and through meaning whatever rules are in place they will choose Disney over Universal". You left out OR the anti maskers are just crazy people that have no respect for children, care only about themselves and are the ones hunting the internet for any reason to voice their opinions. Keeps them from standing on street corners and protesting... They do know over time the vaccine protection % goes way down right? Guess they don't care about their grandmother who has health issues getting this Delta either. At least they will be able to pat her on the head in her coffin without a mask.
