The Mutual of Omaha headquarters at 33rd and Dodge Streets is closed Friday and until further notice after a worker there tested positive for exposure to COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.

Thursday, the employee, who works in a relatively isolated location, began to feel ill and left work to seek medical attention, said Jim Nolan, a Mutual spokesman. "Our understanding is the person tested positive for coronavirus," he said.

Beginning Thursday afternoon, Nolan said, people who came in contact with the person were advised to self-isolate.

A couple of contractors are working to deep-clean the building, Nolan said. The work began Thursday night and will continue Friday.
