An employee at an Amazon fulfillment center in San Bernardino has tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, the company confirmed Thursday, April 2.

Employees of the facility, at 1910 E. Central Ave., have been informed and anyone who was in close contact with the employee will be asked to self-quarantine for 14 days, an Amazon statement said.

Workers at centers in Moreno Valley and Eastvale have also tested positive.

“We are supporting the individual who is recovering,” Timothy Carter, Amazon spokesperson, said in an emailed statement. The company is following medical guidelines and is “taking extreme measures to ensure the safety of employees at our site.”

Amazon employees diagnosed with COVID-19 or placed into quarantine will receive up to two weeks of pay, the company said.

Amazon said it has taken preventative steps for operations worldwide, including delivery and transportation partners, such as increased cleaning of facilities, use of social distancing and requiring workers to stay home and seek medical attention if they are feeling unwell.

Amazon has 14 fulfillment centers and other large-scale operations in the Inland Empire, including in Beaumont, Eastvale, Moreno Valley, Rialto, Riverside, San Bernardino and Redlands.
