Anyone else heard any news about Cardiff MC having some positive covid cases? Apparently they have 3 or 4 positive cases plus another 2 or 3 potential cases (awaiting test result).

Does the mail centre need to be deep cleaned

We had 2 confirmed cases in our office but “strangely” with all the inter action that takes place on a daily basis not one person was listed as a close contact and therefore no other staff have to isolate. I think we had a cleaner turned up with a bottle of antibacterial spray and a few wipes and that was the deep clean. No closure took place and all other staff are working away as normal

I did read that people who test positive are not even asked about work contacts by the contact tracers because all work places that are open should be Covid secure and as such there would be no risk of passing it on to work colleagues. I think we all know that is far from reality in most Royal Mail sites.

So I presume that Cardiff MC would sort mail for the Merthyr? Brecon? Covid areas? Would the drivers be entering the buildings? In our area drivers are in the rest rooms, kitchen, toilets etc. How does it work in covid areas?
