Both of those massive beef processing plants are close to my city..



It's impossible to have social distancing on their production lines.


Fash, the beef will still be there ready for slaughter in a few weeks. They won't run away.

No, it won't. Cattle, pigs and chicken are being euthanized now. This will have a ripple effect worldwide and cause mass malnutrition and death from hunger.

Trump is to sign an executive order to keep the meat plants open.

Lol I was wondering about that, but after seeing a snippet of an article this morning, I hear the Union employees are mad about his decision, and worry about their safety, so I imagine Trump just wants them to go back to work.







Btw, I was told this morning that since folks are getting paid bonus pay on their unemployment checks, not they dont wanna go back to work. Wanna know what else, since they dont, and restaurants and such dont have them on the clock, they lose their small business grant money.





One more thing, that has been brewing in my head with the coffee this morning, a new conspiracy theory. Didnt know if I should start a thread on it. But check this out, so the Dems wanna pay people to stay home, til January. Dems also wanna have folks vote by mail. Isnt it convenient, that they wanna do this til after the election? Socialism to get their votes. Sounds like they are rigging the system. THEN, not to mention whoever is the running mate to Biden, will be the one to become president if Bidens mental disorder gets in the way. Could be Michelle Obama, or Hillary for all we know, or someone just as bad Im sure.

Bad news for people like kiebers and Bazor who have a sweet tooth

Nutella maker closes Brantford plant after workers test positive for coronavirus



The maker of Nutella, Ferrero Rocher and Kinder products says it had to close down its Brantford plant after employees tested positive for COVID-19.



Ferrero Canada Ltd. says the plant closed Tuesday afternoon when it discovered seven workers contracted the virus.



Ferrero spokeswoman Stephanie Cass says in an email that the employees worked in the same areas and had not been in the plant for almost two weeks before getting their test results.



She says Ferrero closed the plant out of an abundance of caution and will only resume operations when it is appropriate to do so.



Cass says the facility will undergo an assessment and deep cleaning and workers will be compensated for their time away, but did not say if the closure would result in shortages of Ferrero products.
