More amusement parks across the country are falling victim to the coronavirus pandemic.
Six Flags announced that it will either be closing down or delaying the openings of its amusement parks across the United States, Canada and Mexico. While the announcement says that the parks won't open until mid-May, it also says that this date could be pushed further back.
Mike Spanos, the company's CEO, made the announcement in a statement via the Six Flags website. He confirmed that Six Flags is monitoring and following the guidance of federal, state and local officials in regards to the COVID-19 outbreak.
"At this time, shelter-in-place mandates are in effect throughout the United States, Mexico, and Canada; therefore, we are delaying the openings or temporarily suspending operations for the following parks until mid-May, or as soon as possible thereafter," he said.
