Supersonic 49,376 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 A total of 657 people have tested positive for the coronavirus at a slaughterhouse in northwestern Germany, authorities announced on Wednesday, out of 983 completed tests. Local politician Sven-Georg Adenauer delivered the updated figures on Wednesday evening, cautioning that more tests were outstanding and further cases probable. The Rheda-Wiedenbrück meat processing plant, in the district of Gütersloh, near Bielefeld, is run by Tönnies, the leading meat processing firm in Germany. Just over 1,000 workers were tested, and most of the results were processed by Wednesday evening. Around 7,000 people in the area have been put in quarantine due to possible exposure to the virus. https://www.dw.com/en/coronavirus-over-600-people-test-positive-at-german-slaughterhouse/a-53846038 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeka 12,372 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Let's not say it's because of meat, because this happened at a farm near where I lived. https://www.wjhl.com/news/local/38-scotts-strawberry-tomato-farms-employees-test-positive-for-covid-19/amp/ It's more due to human error. This is a huge human error. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
