Disney is using Star Wars stormtroopers to remind people to maintain physical distancing.
The characters are walking "on patrol" above Disney Springs.

Skits featuring the stormtroopers highlight the importance of wearing a face covering and social distancing. A video of interaction popped up on YouTube.

The Disney Springs area of Disney World reopened at the end of May. The parks will begin to gradually open on July 11th.
