KENOSHA — An employee at a Kenosha Woodman's has tested positive for COVID-19.

Woodman's took to Facebook Sunday to confirm that one of their own has tested positive and is now self-isolating at home.

According to their post, store management has been in contact with the Kenosha County Health Department. They are cooperating with the health department's guidelines and procedures.

Since this confirmation, Woodman's has decided to increase their cleaning to not just nightly, but during the day as well. They have also enacted social distancing for both their employees and their guests.

Woodman's also installed Plexiglas at their registers to limit the contact between employees and customers, and they will continue offering cleaning wipes to customers.

The store will remain operational, and workers are being offered leave if they would show up to work sick.

It is unknown at this time what department the employee worked in.
