As the situation with COVID-19 continues to evolve, we’ve seen various rules and regulations change.
Orange Bird Mask
Most recently, we’ve shared news about COVID-19 cases increasing in Central Florida and how the Orange County, Florida mayor has recommended masks be worn in select indoor locations again. But, now we’ve got an update out of California and how things are changing in one county there.
According to reporter Claudia Peschiutta, Los Angeles County in California is now set to require masks indoors for all individuals, regardless of vaccination status.

This new rule will go into effect at 11:59PM on Saturday, July 17th. Exceptions will apply, but the new mask rule is set to look largely like the requirements that were in place before June 15th. June 15th is the date that California fully reopened and did away with its color-coded tier system and related requirements, and put a new set of policies in place.
More details are set to be released on the LA County website no later than tomorrow, July 16th.
Festival of the Arts Mask
According to the Orange County Register, this change is being implemented due to the recent growth of COVID-19 transmission in LA County in recent weeks.
The Orange County Register notes that LA County’s current case rate places it in the Centers for Disease Control’s “substantial transmission” category, which is the second highest of its 4 categories.

LA County Health Officer Muntu Davis noted that LA County has been reporting over 1,000 cases a day over the last 7 days.
Disneyland is not located in LA County, but instead is located in Orange County, California. However, Universal Studios Hollywood is located in LA County. Update: Universal Studios Hollywood has since updated their mask requirements — click here to see more.

The virtual ques in California tend to favor the local people. Why? Because they have more experience at snagging a Rise of the Resistance boarding passes. People from out of state like my family end up having this type of pass quite difficult to obtain because lack of knowing the ins and outs of the pass system. When we were there last we failed to obtain a pass for our group yet their were California L.A. regulars who were bragging that this was their 8th time going on the ride. AS advanced as the Disneyland computer system is, that tracks everything else; why can’t they track the first time out of state users and give us some priority over someone that has 8 rides under their belt. Out of state people spend the most money at the parks with hotels, food and gifts. To get up way early to stand in line before the park opens hoping to get in by opening to snag a ride pass is not fair to families coming from out of state with many little children. Ask Mr. Bob CEO to try it with wining little ones and see if he would ever be willing to do that again. Anyone with multple rides on Rise of the Resistance should not have the right to ride over someone who has never been on the ride. Just my thoughts.
