VANCOUVER -- McDonald's restaurants has added four new warnings of possible COVID-19 exposures to its ongoing list.
The possible exposures, which are considered low-risk, took place towards the end of March and led to temporary restaurant closures.
“When we have been notified of an employee confirmed case of COVID-19 in our restaurants (it) … results in a restaurant closure for cleaning and sanitization by a certified third party company,” reads the McDonald’s website.
