One employee dead, more than 400 infected at Triumph Foods plant in St. Joseph, MO. This is a large pork packaging plant in the North-Western part of Missouri. The man who died was in his 40's, and media keeps noting that he had underlying health conditions. This is worrisome.
Underlying conditions or not, this level of outbreak at a facility in the heart of the US which supplies meat regionally is very concerning with regard to US ability to protect those who supply food to the Nation. https://www.kmbc.com/article/triumph-foods-says-worker-died-after-testing-positive-for-covid-19/32395903
