MEDICINE HAT, AB – Mook Fabrics is reporting “a few” of its staff have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, causing it to temporarily close its retail operations in Medicine Hat.

The affected individuals have not been in the store this week and their close contacts have been sent home to get tested as well as isolate, according to a post on the company’s Facebook page.

Orders from Hutterite colonies will still be able to be picked up from the store, and the company says its warehouse and wholesale division have not been affected and continues to be in full operation at this time.
