Woolies on-line shopping

imastawka — Sat, 18 Jul 2020 04:59:46 GMT

I've been trying to shop since yesterday morning, but ran into problems with pages coming up blank for any fresh food.

i.e. milk, eggs, fruit and vegies.

Got onto on-line chat who tells me someone in their distribution centre has acquired Covid and that there are no fresh food deliveries to stores happening, therefore, no home deliveries.

Is this true, or are they lying to me? Anyone have any problems with Woolies on-line?

And where is the email to me and/or a press release?

Fresh Food People? Pfffft

I think I'll go without....Coles on-line is worse.

I'll live on what I've got, and just get hubby to pick up milk.

OK, so this was dated 3 days ago.

I can't see how it relates

A coronavirus outbreak has caused two Woolworths distribution centres in Melbourne's south-east to shut after more than a dozen cases of COVID-19 were detected among staff and contractors.

The closure of the Melbourne Produce Distribution Centre (MPDC) and Melbourne National Distribution Centre (MNDC) in Mulgrave comes after 12 additional staff members tested positive to COVID-19 over the weekend.

A Woolworths spokesperson confirmed to 9News 17 cases of COVID-19 had been recorded at the sites.

Yes it does.

And they can keep their Covid until it dies.

Then give me a delivery.

You think the COVID will die?

It won't. It's not going to go away anytime soon.

There are too many interests in keeping it going.

Good luck with your deliveries!!

I meant the virus will die in the warehouse on any goods that have been in contact with it.

It can't live without a nice warm human host.
