Disney is now offering a range of cloth face masks to wear as part of the CDC's recomendations to help combat the spread of COVID-19.

As part of the product launch, Disney is donating one million cloth face masks for children and families in underserved and vulnerable communities across the U.S., including California and Florida, that will be distributed by MedShare. Disney will also donate all profits from the sales in the U.S. of Disney’s cloth face masks to Medshare, up to $1 million, now through September 30, 2020.

The cloth face masks are available for $19.99 for a four-pack, and feature a wide range of fan favorite characters, including: Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, Anna and Elsa, Woody and Buzz Lightyear, The Avengers and Baby Yoda.

Masks are machine washable cold, and made of polyester, cotton and elastane.

You can pre-order the cloth face masks – available in small, medium, and large sizes – now on shopDisney.com in the U.S., for estimated shipping in mid-June.

It is largely expected that masks will be required during the early phases of Walt Disney World's reopening.

Enjoy the moment. This may be the first time in recorded Disney history where they’ve lowered the price.

You joke, but last September I saw a person in epcot stop mid-walkway, pull the mask down and vomit EVERYWHERE, then forcibly blow the vomit out of their nose, and then pull the mask up and continue on like nothing happened... Someone was definitely a pro drunkcot warrior.

Was in one of the Disney Store/Outlets and they had some for a buck I think, and they also had a sign that was B1G2 free. Most places are trying to clear them out.

Masks on the Disney UK store have been discounted since at least February, a pack of four was originally £20 and have been £3 now for a while. I guess they really over estimated the demand since they are all still available. https://www.shopdisney.co.uk/search?q=face+covering

A thrifty entrepreneur could buy these with the intent to make unofficial mouse ears and sell'm on Etsy.

Two-pack down from $11.99 to $3.00. Four-pack down from $19.99 to $6.00. https://www.shopdisney.com/face-masks/

Just got back from a trip that included a day at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. One of the gift shops dropped a handful of sealed BG logo masks in our bag for FREE. They obviously have tons of these things in storage that they want gone. I prompltly threw them away when we returned home. We maybe saw 15 people in the entire park (and it was sold out) wearing any type of mask.

…in that case “let the peasants do it”

The mask will catch most of the vomit before it hits the pavement for the CM to clean up.
