The State of Florida will open a new testing site in Osceola County at Disney's Maingate office complex near to Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Testing will begin on August 14 from 7am to 4pm, serving Disney Cast Members and their families, along with members of the public. Cast Members can register for a test at disneycovid19test.com, and the public can register at doineedacovid19test.com.

The test for those with or without symptoms, is self-administered with a nasal swab from inside your car, and results are delivered in 3-5 business days.

Just Uber.

Depending on the demand of when you're there, the taxi might be able to wait. Testing has been way down lately, and recently that site has been a walk-up.

If you use the maingate testing site, is there somewhere to pick up a taxi afterwards? I won't have a car. Thank you.

I have twice now. Show up early, and you wait in line outside of your car. No eating or drinking cause ya know covid testing site, people most definitely have covid. No covid distancing markers but the cones that make up the line are six feet apart. Last time I went they had two separate lines one for group teating and another for single testing. Single testing line went a lot faster. You need to make an account to get tested and get your results but testing is free. Results within 30 to 45 minutes Lovely view of the backside of Everest

Central Floridian here! When you donate via One Blood, the antibody test results are sent to you in 48 hours. And yes, mine was negative!

I‘ll just assume this was a joke post or written after consuming copious amounts of alcohol.

I can't agree with your fantasy world reality.

Make sure you bring your towel.

You can. https://www.oneblood.org/donate-now/ We need to focus on real issues like teenagers being asked to step a few feet away from their parents at Walt Disney World.

I'm still scratching my head. Do performers get the test and then wait a week before going on stage?

Those who are actually sick must really burn you up then....
