Disney World Will Still Make You follow This Rule Even If You Get A COVID-19 Vaccine

Getting a COVID-19 vaccine doesn't put you in the clear just yet.

Hope is on the horizon as COVID-19 vaccine doses continue to be administered around the world, but getting one doesn't mean it's time to throw away your mask.

Disney World has officially made the decision to require a face mask on everyone over the age of two wishing to enter the park, even if they have already received a COVID-19 vaccine.

We have taken enhanced health and safety measures—for you, our other Guests, and Cast Members. Disney World.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says those who have received both vaccine doses should wear a mask, as experts still need to understand more about the protection COVID-19 vaccines provide in the real-world.

At Disney World, you will be required to wear a mask at all times except when eating, drinking and swimming.

The park is also enforcing new mask requirements that dictate what a mask needs to have in order to be worn throughout the park.

All face coverings, disposable or reusable, must have at least two layers and fully cover the nose and mouth. They should also be secure under the chin and fit snugly against the side of the face, with ties or ear loops to allow the guest to remain hands-free.

According to the website, "Neck gaiters, open-chin triangle bandanas and face coverings containing valves, mesh material or holes of any kind are not acceptable face coverings." 

Other COVID-19 precautions Disney is taking include enforcing physical distancing and temperature checks at multiple spots throughout the park.
