Disney has removed the last of the COVID-19 health and safety signs this morning at the entrances to locations across the entire Walt Disney World property as the company looks to a new era post-pandemic.
These COVID-19 warning signs were positioned at the entrance to the theme parks, resort hotels, and Disney Springs at Disney World's reopening in summer 2020 and stated to guests, "By visiting Walt Disney World, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19."
As part of the COVID-19 health and safety protocols at Disney World, the warning signs were joined by social distancing and masking signage. The latter were removed over time as Disney relaxed its COVID-19 guidelines. But the warning sign with the disclaimer notice remained until now.
The last of the COVID-19 signage remains at Disney's First Aid Centers, which still require masks to be worn when inside.
In addition to removing the warning signs, most hand sanitizer stations have gradually been removed from the parks over the last few weeks. You may still find some hand sanitizer stations at buffet restaurants, but don't expect to see them at park entrances or attractions.
The latest action by Disney seems to close the book on COVID-19 at Walt Disney World, despite continuing cases among guests and Cast Members. Like most of the planet, Disney World is looking to put the pandemic firmly in the history books.
