Disney World just announced that as of this month temperature screenings will be a thing of the past. As of May 8th, Cast Members will no longer require temp screenings and as of May 16th, guests will no longer require them.

The statement from Disney reads:
As this guidance continues to evolve, and with the support of local health and government officials, we are making some additional adjustments. Following the advice of the CDC and our local health officials, we will phase out onsite temperature screenings at Walt Disney World Resort for Cast Members beginning May 8 and Guests on May 16.
Although masks and social distancing are still required at Disney, they have relaxed some things a bit. Guests are now able to remove their face coverings only for photos, which is a step in the right direction.

Just last week, Mayor Demmings of Orange County passed an executive order stating that social distancing could be relaxed, effective immediately, from 6 feet to 3 feet.
