“The origin of the suspected contraction is not known to us. All protocol regarding stringent hygiene and disinfection processes has already been followed in the store and the mall. Our thoughts and condolences are with the family during this difficult time. There is nothing more important than maintaining a safe environment and we will be taking all necessary precautions for the well-being of our entire shopping community. We urge all shoppers to always wear a mask, practice social distancing and wash your hands as often as possible.
