STAFF at a Sainsbury's supermarket have tested positive for coronavirus.

The company has confirmed there are "a very small number of cases" at the Talbot Heath store at Alder Hills in Poole.

Those who have tested positive are not at work and it is understood that at least one more member of staff has been asked to self-isolate.

A Sainsbury’s spokesperson said: "A very small number of cases have been confirmed at our Talbot Heath store and the colleagues are self-isolating at home.

"Safety is our highest priority and we have strict social distancing measures in all our stores as well as hand sanitiser stations, Perspex screens and PPE for all our colleagues. We continue to support Test and Trace and remain in close contact with them."
