Over the weekend the ShopRite at Morrell Plaza (on Frankford Ave in Philadelphia) confirmed that one of their employees had tested positive for the coronavirus.

On Facebook, ShopRite of Morrell Plaza stated that they were ready for any unfortunate circumstances that came their way and are taking any precautions to help stop the coronavirus.

Sean and Bria McMenamin, owners of ShopRite at Morrell Plaza, made it clear on the Facebook that the employee who tested positive for COVID-19 is no longer at the workplace.  Any other employees that interacted closely with that individual have been sent home on a 14-day quarantine for precaution.
