DABC spokesman Terry Wood says that there is no confirmed date the store located at 671 S Pleasant Grove Blvd in Pleasant Grove will be opened, but that it will be sanitized and disinfected.
Other liquor stores closed due to a worker with COVID
This is the third State liquor store to close this month due to COVID-19. Two other locations in Salt Lake were also closed after a worker tested positive for the virus. They have since reopened.

- Don’t touch your face.
- Keep children and those with compromised immune systems away from someone who is coughing or sneezing (in this instance, at least six feet)
- If there is an outbreak near you, practice social distancing (stay at home, instead of going to the movies, sports events, or other activities.)
- Get a flu shot.
