If true, this is an unusually heartless and crass move on the part of Tyson Foods managers.  It’s the subject of a lawsuit, so one must be careful about the validity of the contention.  Still, the allegation is a PR nightmare for the company and for the leaders of the pork processing plant.  It shows disregard for the health and safety of employees.  Even if the charge is proven untrue, there is lingering doubt over safety measures at the facility, which was eventually shut down over COVID concerns.  The work in meat processing plants is hard and dangerous normally.  It was doubly difficult as the virus spread.  A proper move would have been pre-emptive procedures to protect workers, which might have included more than Plexiglas shields between work stations.  The company says there were temperature scanners available and it kept social distancing procedures.  Still, five workers died of the disease, so something was not right. Tyson needs to do its own impartial investigation of what happened at the plant and come clean.
