Disneyland Shanghai has been forced to shut down for at least two days after visitor tested positive for COVID-19

The Chinese theme park will be now be closed, deep cleaned and all visitors and staff are being tested.

Health officials in protective suits examined them as fireworks went off around the park’s landmark castle.

China hopes to reach zero infections before the country hosts the Winter Olympics, which is set to begin in February.

The communist nation, where the virus was first discovered, officially recorded 92 new cases on Monday.

According to Chinese state media, a person who visited the Disneyland theme park in Shanghai on Saturday tested positive for the virus after returning to a nearby region.

Visitors were forced to wait hours for testing before they could leave the park on Sunday evening, as the entertainment – such as a fireworks display, continued around them.

All other visitors at the park tested negative, according to reports.

China has recorded 4,849 deaths from Covid and 109,666 cases of infection since the virus was first detected in 2019 in the city of Wuhan.
