A rapper is accusing Disney of ruining his family’s trip because they denied access to his little cousin. Read the full story here, and then let us know if you think there should be exceptions for the mask policy.
Mask Policy
Disney has made it extremely clear what the mask requirements are while visiting the theme parks and resorts.
Since the reopening of the resorts and parks last summer, face coverings are required for Guests ages 2 and up. The only exceptions are while eating and/or dinking (while stationary), swimming, while relaxing in one of the designated areas, or staying in the hotel room. Otherwise, masks are required at all times.
There are no exceptions to this policy.
Refused Entry
A rapper by the name of Joey Bada** (full name edited out for cursing) is accusing Disney of ruining his family’s trip because his maskless autistic cousin was refused entry at the Transportation and Ticket Center.
He shared a video on his Instagram account with the following caption:
Never coming back to Disney again.
Here’s Luis, Cameron, and Kaitlyn and they just turned away an autistic child at Disney World because he didn’t want to wear his mask. The child thinks the mask is suffocating, the child also has no idea why it is even a requirement. Not to mention that, kids under 2, doesn’t have to wear a mask. These guys have completely ruined my family’s trip. We came out here 30+ for my daughters bday and they turned my lil cousin away, can’t even enjoy this experience anymore. @disney @waltdisneyworld @disneystudios @disneyland
You can check out the full video on his Instagram page.
Should there be exceptions?
While many people cannot wear a mask for various reasons, Disney has not budged from its original face covering policy.
We would love to hear from you: do you think Disney should make exceptions to the policy? Should there be some leniency regarding who can visit the theme parks without a mask?

Stop lying

"Masks especially when worn for hours in the heat are extremely harmful to the wearer. Problems range from hypoxia, dental issues, and damaged immune systems."
Lies. Unless you have some peer reviewed studies proving it. Doctors wear masks for 12+ hour surgeries all the time. There has been a video of a doctor wearing multiple masks at once, then putting on a pulse oxygen monitor and going jogging with *no* change to his blood oxygen level. Stop spreading these lies.

So proud of Disney for not caving to this person and his entitled attitude. There are signs everywhere with the policies and expectations concerning the wearing of masks. I hope Disney backed the cast members dealing with this bully.

Read and know the rules BEFORE you go. I was there last summer after the parks reopened. It was very hot but we visited relaxation areas when needed and limited our park hours. No one should feel entitled nor should they bash Disney for having rules. Honestly, I feel safer in Disney than my local supermarket. I know I get temperature checked before entering the parks and Disney Springs and mask policies are strictly enforced.

The entire mask charade is ridiculous. Masks especially when worn for hours in the heat are extremely harmful to the wearer. Problems range from hypoxia, dental issues, and damaged immune systems.
But in spite of that reality, 1) Disney has a policy in place and is NOT making exceptions whatsoever. 2) Don't just assume you're going to show up somewhere and have any exceptions to any rules made.

Disney is very clear and upfront about what the rules are. If he didn’t research beforehand, shame on him. If he went expecting the rules to be bent for him, double shame on him....none of us should be above the rules. Thanks to Disney for keeping us all safe.
