Fraser Health has issued a warning about coronavirus (COVID-19) exposures over a four-day period at a Burnaby business.

The health authority’s exposure website has posted about Haven Nails and Spa, located at 6544 Hastings St. in the Kensington shopping centre.

The exposure days run from Nov. 14 to 17.

“Anyone who was on-site during this time must self-isolate for 14 days after last time at the site,” directs Fraser Health.

“If you have been in one of these locations at the times of possible exposure, it does not mean you will develop COVID-19. The possible exposures listed on this site are believed to be low risk but, out of an abundance of caution, Public Health asks anyone who may have visited any of the locations listed on the specified dates and times to monitor themselves for symptoms. There is no known risk to anyone who attended any listed locations outside of the specified dates and times.”

Workplaces in Metro Vancouver face new COVID-19 restrictions

British Columbia’s top doctor recently asked office-based workplaces and companies to keep employees working from home, until next year.

Henry informed the public of the provincial health decision in Thursday’s COVID-19 press briefing.

“Right now, we are asking all office-based employers to temporarily suspend their efforts to get workers safely back into their workplaces, and to support working from home, where possible, until at least the New Year,” said Henry. “For anyone going to work, it is important that we minimize all of those social interactions with our colleagues before, during, and after work.”
