“A worker diagnosed with a COVID-19 infection is being treated at home. He did not have close contact with buyers or other colleagues. We are consulting with the National Center for Public Health and, if necessary, we will take the recommended actions, ”says Ernesta Dapkienė, Director of the Department of Communication and Image of the Maxima retail chain.
