General Store and Post Office deny COVID-19 infection rumors

community · March 2021 · General Store and Post Office

The Denman Island General Store and Post Office publicly denied rumors that any employee had tested positive for COVID-19, stating they follow and exceed provincial health guidelines and warning against spreading false rumors that harm their business and staff.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
