Eighteen workers at a Bernard Matthews turkey plant in Suffolk have tested positive for coronavirus and are self-isolating, the company has confirmed.
Food production at the processing facility in Holton, near Halesworth has not been affected by the outbreak, the firm said. Around 100 staff have been tested for COVID-19, with most returning negative results and additional testing taking place this week. The site has had controls in place since March to reduce coronavirus infections, including regular temperature checks, staff working in bubbles, COVID marshals, masks and visors and social distancing throughout the site.
The majority of the 18 workers who tested positive live in the Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft areas and the cases are believed to have initiated in the community, the company said.
