*JBS knew this was a problem in April, it was kept on the dl…ask the workers.
*Google JBS meat plant Greeley Colorado. Greeley plant was closed for 2 weeks and so should the Hyrum plant.
*Some of the workers at the Greeley plant left and came to the plant in Hyrum.
Disappointed in JBS handling/protecting their employees and in Bear River Health District for not alerting the public sooner. The connection to Covid 19 and the plant was known or should have been known prior to Cache County/Bear River Health District moving to yellow status.
It was well known that meat packing plants across the country were hot spots for Covid 19.
I knew they were full of #+$&, it was almost comical
Please…..Red ASAP.
Corrupt, vote them out!. U know there is A LOT more to this story. Makes me sick
