The non-empty ones were probably already the hospitals or don't have masks in them.

Liberals love this poo poo so they do it. I still keep hearing about how Trump doesn't say some somber words about people dying when it's clear he is totally fine with people dying.

Decorum decorum

Make no mistake Obama and all these dems do the same poo poo empty boxes and all

This one was the best though. They didn't even have permission from the soup kitchen, Ryan's team just barged in and staged photos and left.

200k have recovered, so it's a million active. I have to figure that 5% of those will die, so 50k more dead are baked in even if no one else gets it.

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. A week prior, Waterloo Mayor Quentin Hart called for the Tyson facility to be temporarily closed.

That was posted on 4am May 7th fast forward to 9pm on May 7th

https://www.desmoinesregister.com/s...ure/3092376001/

quote:

More than 1,000 workers at the Tyson Foods plant in Waterloo have tested positive for the coronavirus, a county public health leader said Thursday — more than double the number Gov. Kim Reynolds had said were infected the day before.

The news came Thursday as the Arkansas company reopened the plant after a two-week closure following a spike in COVID-19 cases there.

The 1,031 Tyson employees confirmed to have the coronavirus included workers who were tested at the plant during the shutdown as well as at private health-care providers, Black Hawk County public officials said. The number includes workers who exhibited no symptoms.

Reynolds said Wednesday that 444 workers at Tyson's Waterloo plant had tested positive. She said they were among a total of 1,653 meatpacking plant workers who tested positive at four plants. The others were Tyson pork processing plants in Columbus Junction and Perry, and an Iowa Premium beef processing plant in Tama.

caveat

quote:

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.

Tyson also said it has doubled its bonus pay for frontline workers and plant employees who can't come to work because of illness or childcare issues related to Covid-19. They will continue to qualify for bonus pay as well.

How do we all think that's going to work out?

This is a large part of why the UI thing is a failure. I swear the bill had protections for people who didn't feel safe going to work but those were obviously going to get ignored everywhere to save the state budgets money

Everyone should have just gotten 300/week flat til July and there wouldn't be such an incredible outcry to force infections to ramp back up. But nope!
