Coronavirus has hit Abu Dhabi, with two people testing positive for the virus and causing a lockdown of two hotels, W Abu Dhabi and Crowne Plaza in Yas Island. Reportedly, both of the affected persons are Italian citizens who came to Abu Dhabi for the UAE Tour cycling race. Over 100 tourists staying at the hotel have been told they cannot leave “until the sanitary authorities warn.” All guests in the hotels are now undergoing a screening process.
