<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The restaurant in Great Bridge, Sandwell, has been closed “as a precautionary measure following a rise of Covid-19 cases in the local area”, McDonald’s said.</p>
<p>People turning up at the branch off the main Black Country New Road were presented with a sign saying the restaurant has “temporarily closed for maintenance”.</p>
<p>It comes after the borough of Sandwell recorded an increased seven-day infection rate amid a jump in cases.<br />
The closure came to light as Sandwell’s director of public health Lisa McNally urged businesses to let the council know if it had had two or more Covid-19 cases in their workforce.</p>
<p>There has been a sharp spike in infections across the borough, with the rate in the week to July 26 standing at 32.4 cases per 100,000, up from 23.2, according to official health figures.<br />
There were 106 new cases over that period – the most recent for which figures are available.</p>
