The worker was exposed to covid-19, was told to quarantine, and came back on site anyway.

This strikes me as an egregious safety violation and a truly excellent reason to fire the worker.

I think the point is that more than just this worker was exposed to COVID-19...shouldn't the entire warehouse be shuttered?

Depends on the circumstances of his contact, what parts of the site he was in, who he came into contact...etc. I'm not sure one potential case warrants the entire warehouse being shuttered if appropriate disinfection and continued monitoring are in place. They seemed to catch his exposure via some string of events, so there is some effort in risk analysis happening.
