SANTA CLARA COUNTY, Calif. (KGO) — Health officials are now saying clusters of
coronavirus cases have been reported at four
Costco locations in Santa Clara County.

LIST: Face masks required at stores including Walmart, Best Buy, Starbucks

At least 13 workers have tested positive at the Costco in Sunnyvale at 150 Sunnyvale Station Road and it is still open to customers.

Smaller clusters were also reported at the Costco locations in Mountain View, Gilroy and San Jose.

The Santa Clara County Public Health Department says it is working with the stores to investigate the situation.

“The initial investigation shows that most likely it was not inside the store. The cases were most likely infected outside the workplace,” said Marty Fenstersheib, Santa Clara County health officer.
