Is Disneyland Resort Opening too soon? 

Of course, this new reopening plan is a bit of a surprise as earlier this year California Governor Gavin Newsom set out some very strict social distancing guidelines for the state, which effectively bans large gatherings (like those you would see at a theme park) until there is a reliable treatment or vaccine for COVID-19. And with California recording at least 2,000 new coronavirus cases per day (and no treatment or vaccine in sight) it seems like a strange time to announce a reopening. 

However, it looks like Disney has once again given themselves plenty of time to plan in advance for this reopening, as we're still just under six weeks away from Disneyland Resort's full reopening, which gives them some flexibility if plans change. 

As always, while this situation is evolving, all travelers should check out the CDC's official site here, which has information on the virus and how to prevent its spread.
