A McDonald's restaurant in China has been temporarily shut
down after it banned black people out of fears that they might be coronavirus
carriers.
McDonald's said in a statement that the Guangzhou branch
has temporarily closed due to the incident.
'As a brand, as a company and as more than 2.2 million
people serving nearly 120 countries around the world, this is not
representative of our inclusive values,' the statement read.
'Immediately upon learning of an unauthorized communication
to our guests at a restaurant in Guangzhou, we immediately removed the
communication and temporarily closed the restaurant.
'As part of the temporary closure of this restaurant, we
will take the opportunity to further educate managers and employees on our values,
which includes serving all members of the communities in which we operate.'
