EVERETT — Two U.S. Postal Service employees based at the service’s Everett hub have tested positive for COVID-19.

The post office at 8120 Hardeson Road serves as a base for area mail carriers, and it includes a retail store.

“Both of these (positive tests) occurred in March and both employees are at home recovering,” regional postal service spokesman Ernie Swanson said this week. “The areas in which they work have been sanitized and cleaned and are still operational.”

Swanson was unable to provide further details about the employees or their positions, citing federal privacy rules.

1. This is why I have been leaving the mail in the box for 24 hours before touching it

and then disinfecting the envelopes before opening. Then the envelopes go straight to the recycle bin outside.
Scary times.
I hope the best for these workers.
