Tyson Foods says its largest US pork plant will reopen Thursday after a major coronavirus outbreak forced the company to shut down the facility two weeks ago

The plant in Waterloo, Iowa, which employs about 3,000 people, was one of several major meat processing plants to close its doors in recent weeks because of a Covid-19 outbreak among staff members. The closures have led to meat shortage forecasts and purchase limits at some grocery store chains.The Black Hawk County health department linked the Waterloo Tyson plant to 182 of the county's Covid-19 cases on April 21.

Social distance monitors will be stationed throughout the plant to ensure that employees comply with safety guidelines.Tyson said all the plant's returning staff members have been tested for Covid-19 and plant employees who have not been tested will not be allowed to return to work. The company said employees who have tested positive for the coronavirus will remain on sick leave until health officials say its safe for them to return to work.

Hmmm☹️

Watch this 1918 film of the 1918 Swine flu. We're mounting at 70,000 deaths. The swine flu had more than 7,000,000

Good news

Laughing at a subway finally get a cleaning ? How about a meat plant getting positive coverage for doing the same . Makes you want to eat Tyson foods. So , they don’t normally clean their plants . More and better info is always -a good thing.

2020 when you lose your house, job, money, your children education because of a 2% death rate virus

2020 when lazy get paid, hardworking get jail time

That should make IlhanMN and RashidaTlaib happy.

So why didn't they have this PPE for the employees before the outbreak? Relatively inexpensive fixes.

I hope they have gotten the place marked out for social distancing, have proper masks, hand sanitizers. Slow down the conveyor belt. Give the people better pay, keep them safe. The nation needs the workers and the products. Help them to keep their families safe.

Sounds like a lot of people do not understand that food shortages cause starvation but I'm guessing a lot of them are for socialism.

How many people who work in fastfood that has been open this whole time been tested?

I know one of the managers personally who works for Tyson and this manager has told me that a lot of money has changed hands here and there to get the plant open again. This manager told me to never eat anything out of the plant again. What this manager told me is disgusting.

Yeah get your meat, you can trust they fully decontaminated and sterilized the plant! Made working conditions super super safe!

TysonFoods is Trying to please realDonaldTrump by KILLING their employees for WhiteHouse kickbacks. Trump ONLY cares about winning his election on the economy at this point, at the Risk of hard working Americans DYING. TrumpLiesAmericansDie

They had better have the worker protections and PPE in place. Evil, evil company.

Thank god the meat processing monopoly was able to bounce back at least.

Dems should move out of any state wanting to go back to work.

RemoveGOPNow Yeah. A good cleaning. That should fix everything. Me...not holding my breath

Let the American animalcrueltyindustry be great again!

I won’t eat it!!! Will you? After workers sickened by the virus I think could infect the pork. Or is Tyson look for price increase for pork products they produce🤔🤔🤔 I’m not chancing it, I’ll eat beans and put fuel (GAS), in my tank

How irresponsible . Money over health in my opinion.

Yum 😋

This is the kind of thing where we find out that they were lying about everything and made mediocre safety “improvements”. It will all come to light when they start getting sued.

Chlorine stocks replenished? Is it time to wash the bacon and chicken?

wow
