Hong Kong Disneyland closed today in order for staff to take Covid-19 tests after reports of one person testing positive at the parks over the weekend. Hong Kong Disneyland authorities said the closure was “an abundance of caution”.

The Kong Kong government stated that any person who visited the parks on November 14th between 11:00am and 6:00pm would also have to get mandatory testing for the virus. Quarantine and patient discharge rules have been more strict even though there have been barely any local Covid-19 cases in recent months.

The park will continue to control capacity as required by the government. Social distancing measures have been implemented in queues, restaurants (including seating arrangements), attraction vehicles and other facilities throughout the park, reflecting the latest government regulations. Markers and signage are included in queues and show viewing areas to remind guests to keep an appropriate social distance from others.
