Workers are fleeing farms to avoid mandatory COVID-19 testing. California is ordering meat plants to close. The “second wave” has arrived as an controlled demolition of our food supply, to allow the totalitarian, technocratic takeover of our food supply and society. Spread the word and start growing food.

California health officials order chicken plant closure after 8 die of COVID-19

Quote
California health officials are ordering a Foster Farms poultry plant closed after eight workers died of COVID-19 and at least 358 employees tested positive for the virus. The order came as the local public health department works to curtail what it calls "the most severe and long-lasting outbreak in Merced County" at the Foster Farms facility in Livingston.


The true count of infections among the plant's 3,750 employees is unknown, as the official count is largely based on workers who chose to get tested and reported the results, the Merced County Department of Public Health said on Thursday.

The facility now accounts for 18% of COVID-19 deaths of those 64 and younger in the county. The county public health department's account of what led to its closure order is a somber retelling of deaths that seemingly didn't have to happen.

In late June, a month before any workers had died but as cases tied to the Foster Farms outbreak continued to rise, Merced County health officials visited the plant and offered recommendations for controlling its spread, the MCDPH said in a statement.

Foster Farms did not fully heed guidance to conduct widespread testing of its workers and change their break space, according to the health department.

This was one chicken processing plant, not multiple "plants" as the Who-the-Heck-is-That writer claimed. And with 8 deaths and 358 confirmed positive (almost 10% of the plant's workers) the problem at that plant is real. And it appears that in the past 2 months Foster Farms did not do some very practical things that could have lessened the magnitude of the problem.

This is not a "totalitarian, technocratic takeover of our food supply"!
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

You can't get "click's" if you can't have an outrageous lead.  It is how the media rolls today.  It used to be only the print tabloids did this.  But since print is dead they have all become the National Inquirer and the like.
