A Keysborough supermarket and an egg producer have been closed due to workers testing positive to Covid-19.
Woolworths Parkmore closed for deep cleaning overnight on Tuesday 21 July after a worker’s positive test was obtained, a statement from Parkmore shopping centre said.
The staff member had been at the store “between” Wednesday 15 July, 2.45-8pm and Saturday 18 July, 4pm-7pm, according to the statement.
“As a result, they have notified all staff members who have been in close contact with the individual to self-isolate until they receive their tests results,” the shopping centre stated.
Keysborough Egg Farm closed from 5.30pm on Friday 17 July due to a “backroom” worker’s positive test.
“Rest assured that this staff member had no direct contact with customers,” the business posted on Facebook.
“We believe it is integral to close so we can do a full sanitisation of the shop and all touchable surfaces.”
The egg producer hoped to re-open on Monday 27 July.
