A popular KFC restaurant in Australia has been forced to close its doors after an employee tested positive for coronavirus. 

The fast food giant has confirmed that they’ve closed their Deagon restaurant in Brisbane until further notice in response to the worker’s diagnosis. 

KFC management has also reportedly sent messages to local primary and high schools warning students of the coronavirus discovery.

In a statement to 7NEWS Brisbane, KFC confirmed the shock news. 

“A team member from our Deagon restaurant has tested positive for COVID-19. As a precaution we’ve closed the restaurant until further notice and all employees exposed to the member have been asked to self-isolate.” a spokesperson said.
