On March 12, The Hollywood Reporter posted:
The Walt Disney Family Museum — which is not formally associated with The Walt Disney Co. — closed its doors this week after a relative of an employee tested positive for the coronavirus. On Thursday, the museum announced the employee, too, tested positive. It is unclear when the Presidio of San Francisco nonprofit, founded by the late Diane Disney Miller, will reopen.
