More Fortinos employees at the 3940 Hwy. 7 and 8585 Hwy. 27 locations in Vaughan tested positive for COVID-19 last week.

According to Loblaws, a team member tested positive at the Hwy. 27 location on a presumptive test. The last day they worked was Dec. 4.

It's not the first positive test at the location, as four people who work there tested positive late last month. The last days those team members worked were Nov. 18, 20, 21 and 28.

Another team member also tested positive at the Hwy. 7 location. The last day they worked was Dec. 8. A different team member at that location, who last worked Dec. 2, previously tested positive.

According to the Loblaws COVID-19 policy, the company is prepared for all possible situations, including a positive test for COVID-19 in its stores.

In these cases, the store works closely with public health and follows its guidance to ensure proper notification of close contacts and required cleaning and sanitization of the store.
