My Millennium Prize challenge for those clamoring to reopen the economy is: How do you reopen Disneyland? (I think Disneyland was even referenced in the article.)

That's a giant social space people would be clamoring to go to. But given Disneyland's mystique and raison d'etre, the logistics right now are impossible.

I don't know how viable the solution proposed here actually is. The skeptics here raise some good points.

But if this solution turned out to be proven, I expect Disneyland would be one of the first places where it was deployed at scale. If we trusted the technology, I'm pretty sure both you and I would be happy to wait 10 minutes to get in. A free COVID screen as part of your price of admission. (It's interesting to consider how they would handle people who failed the screening. A balloon and hauled away in a cheerful corporate van? Maybe Disney starts running COVID resort sanitoriums?)

I also imagine Disney is one of the few organizations out there that could get the queuing sorted out. And I suspect that would be as important as anything. Once perfected, it could serve as a model for others.

Waiting in line for a venue can easily take 20-30 minutes. So why not deploy this to places like this. You get the test done while waiting in line at no extra time cost to you. So you wouldn't even be waiting 10 min to get in. That's already something you do.

At attractions and large events, maybe an app (or just a database linked to some sort of ID) to prove a person has passed the screening that day (or recently enough), so it doesn't all need to be done at the attraction/event itself?

For this purpose the screening would probably have to be carried out at locations that could confirm the sample came from the right person at the right time.
