There’s no word on when the store hopes to reopen, and so far, public health hasn’t advised Manitobans of any potential exposure to the coronavirus at the store.
Manitoba saw 65 new cases of COVID-19 reported on the long weekend, the bulk of those (34) in Winnipeg.
As of Tuesday morning, the city has 141 active cases.
