One supermarket chain in Canada isn't taking any chances when it comes to the pandemic and will begin offering temperature checks for shoppers before they enter their stores.

T&T; Supermarket announced yesterday they'll begin offering temperature checks for customers starting this Monday at some of its stores; a practice it had already introduced for employees.

"As we all know fever is the most common symptoms for COVID-19," the company wrote in a Facebook post. "In order to protect our customers and staffs, we will be providing temperature check service starting on the coming Monday."

The check involves a handheld infrared monitoring device that scans the customer's forehead and is entirely voluntary.

The popular supermarket chain operates stores in Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta.

T&T; has also instituted a number of other measures meant to reduce the risk of spreading the COVID-19 virus, like social distancing, senior priority hours and placing hand sanitizer stations around the store.
