Two more cases of coronavirus have been confirmed stemming from a McDonald’s franchise in Melbourne’s north, the company’s CEO said.
McDonald’s boss Andrew Gregory said the Department of Health and Human Services advised that another two close contacts of the four employees who had tested positive had also contracted the virus.
The number of cases associated with the cluster is now eight.
“Our major priority is to make sure all of those people are well and recovering,” Mr Gregory told Melbourne radio station 3AW.
The company employs 100 staff and “the vast majority” of them have been tested.
“And the vast majority of those [tests] have come back negative,” he said.
“But it’s still possible over the coming days as we continue to get those tests … we will get a number of positive infections.”
Despite the cluster, the restaurant remains open for takeaway with the drive-thru still doing a brisk business this morning.
More than 90 staff have been tested and were sent into self-isolation pending the outcome of their tests.
