The Pick n Pay at Alex Mall in Alexandra, north of Johannesburg has temporarily closed its doors after two staff members tested positive for Covid-19.
"The store is currently being sanitised and all necessary protocols and procedures are being followed,” says the mall’s Gayle Crow.
“The store will reopen for trade as soon as all parties agree it is safe to do so, most likely by midday on Monday."
