Earlier on Sunday, the facility said entry had been suspended to cooperate with Covid-19 related epidemiological investigation in other provinces and cities, and guests have been required to undergo nucleic acid testing at the exit when leaving the resort.

A total of 220 shuttle buses have been arranged to transport the tourists who left the park on Sunday evening as the metro service at Disney Resort station was suspended.

All tourists who had visited Disneyland and Disneytown during the weekend were required to report to their neighbourhood, employer, or school, and conduct a nucleic acid test immediately at a nearby medical institution, Shanghai’s epidemic prevention and control headquarters said on Sunday evening.
