Facebook Closes London Offices Till Monday for Deep Cleaning

(Bloomberg) -- Facebook closed its London offices until Monday for deep cleaning after a Singapore-based employee, who previously visited their London bureau, tested positive for the coronavirus.

“An employee based in our Singapore office who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 visited our London offices 24-26 February 2020,” a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement on Friday. “We are therefore closing our London offices until Monday for deep cleaning and employees are working from home until then.”
