This isn't near me, but a county (Martin) near me here in Minnesota is still the second highest per capita rate and the initial outbreak has been traced to a similarly large church choir practice.

I hate American businesspeople. via the Texas Tribune:

quote:

Despite a growing coronavirus outbreak tied to the massive JBS Beef meatpacking plant north of Amarillo, the company has rejected the state's offer to test all of its employees.

The state response team recently created to facilitate testing in the Texas Panhandle has checked thousands of workers at another nearby plant, but has not been allowed to test the roughly 3,000 employees at the JBS plant in Cactus, said Seth Christensen, a spokesperson for the Texas Division of Emergency Management. JBS Beef said in a statement Tuesday evening that there are "no plans" for targeted testing of its mostly immigrant workforce "at this time." At least one meatpacking plant employee has died after being infected and others remain hospitalized.

“We continue collaborating with local health and government officials," said Nikki Richardson, a company spokesperson. "Given that the coronavirus is a community-wide issue, we would actively encourage our team members to participate in a community testing program, should one become available.”

Sure, we could let you be tested, but it's the wrong kind of testing! The kind that might suggest your employer is a hotspot.

seems to me an employer doesn't have the legal authority to refuse medical procedures or tests on behalf of his employees

All this really depressing gaming of the system by not testing, not reporting and not counting untested but almost definitely infected dead to keep number of infected and dead down that is happening all over the place but especially in the US can be summed up in one sentence:

The real number is the friends we lost along the way.
