Island Health has issued an alert late Tuesday afternoon warning the public of two possible COVID-19 exposure sites in Sidney.
According to the statement, both Mary’s Bleue Moon Cafe and 10 Acres Cafe & Market at the Sidney Pier Hotel & Spa had employees test positive for the virus.
Island Health says that the 10 Acres employee(s) last worked at that location on Thursday and Friday, August 20-21, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days.
They also state that the employee(s) at Mary’s Bleue Moon Cafe last worked on Friday, August 21 between 4 p.m. and 9:15 p.m, as well as Saturday, August 22 between 9:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. or between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Island Health advises that anyone who visited either of the two locations in Sidney between August 20 and August 22 may be at risk for possible exposure to COVID-19, but also notes that these exposures are believed to be low risk.
Out of an abundance of caution, they ask anyone who may have visited either of the above locations on the specified dates and times to monitor themselves for symptoms.
