Ice cream and lollies on hold

Owner of Muzza’s Milk Bar in Evans Head, Caroline Powell was gutted when she found out her business had become a venue of concern, after a positive covid case was detected in Goonellabah last week.
“Unfortunately, NSW Health didn’t get in contact with me until 10.30am, so I did find out over Facebook first, as someone sent me the NSW Health post,” she said.
“It’s pretty hectic, but I’ve been on and off the phone with NSW Health…going through everything that I have to do.”
During the most recent lockdown for the Richmond Valley Muzza’s had been kept busy delivering all types of lollies and sweets to the surrounding areas, a welcome distraction for many.
Many friends and clients have checked in on Caroline and her staff.
“The phone’s been ringing all morning,” she said.
“Customers checking in on me and family members calling.”
Caroline placed a post on Muzza’s Facebook page explaining the situation.
“We are just very thankful that the person checked in via QR code, so we know that they were definitely here,” she wrote.
“We will be closed until further notice as all our staff, including myself, have to get tested and isolate until further notice.”
The next step for Caroline is to do a deep clean of the premises.
“NSW Health has sent me through the paperwork on how to do a Covid Deep Clean,” she said.
“They want me to send it to whoever I get to do the deep clean and they have to wear full PPE.”
