Safety measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic at theme parks have been changing on a weekly basis as of late. First, temperature checks were removed and physical distancing requirements reduced to three feet. Then, the mandate for face coverings to be worn while outdoors was relaxed less than two weeks ago. Now, it’s being reported to us that wearing masks indoors will also become optional.
Beginning this coming Saturday, May 29th, the requirement for wearing masks indoors is expected to become optional. This will include eliminating the requirement for face coverings when experiencing attractions, both indoors and outdoors.
Additionally, Team Members assigned to mask enforcement duties are being reassigned to other tasks beginning this weekend, further signaling that masks will, effectively, be entirely optional at Universal Orlando Resort starting Saturday.
We’ll update this post with further details once Universal Orlando Resort releases an official statement.
Stay tuned to Universal Parks News Today for the latest developments from the Universal resorts around the world.
It’s happening!
This “news” website is always giving out false information about the parks. Dont believe a word they say until the parks make an announcement themselves.
Now confirmed.
Not confirmed yet
It certainly is, this info was distributed to all Team Members.
Lol it’s confirmed now and you look like a fool John
First of all, it’s true. Second of all… why keep reading?
Then why don’t you get your news elsewhere?
Nice!!
Awesome.
New Rules brought to you by Deathsantis!
Get yo Rona!!!
Anthony, if you are scared of a virus with a 99%+ survival rate, then feel free to stay home. The rest of us are going to enjoy our FREEDOM!
ah yes, that 99% survivable virus that has killed over half a million americans.
Yes… when you begin to understand that the majority of people, likely 20X the confirmed numbers, had it and didn’t even know… this is where you get the true survival rate. This is also what made the virus so dangerous… the vast majority of the people who got it had no idea and wound up spreading it.
So very happy about this….if you feel the need to wear on, wear one …. now its choice
But… but… but… whatever shall we do. The Mask is our protector. The Mask is our savior. Oh mighty Mask, please smite them where they stand. How can our Cult of the Mask continue? Hail Mask… Hail Mask… Hail Mask.
Great news the mouse needs to follow!!
