Coronavirus: Why were there so many outbreaks in meat-processing plants?

Nov 30,2023 1:11 pm

hundreds of Workers , tested positive for coronavirus on meat processing establishments and slaughterhouses.

There have also been major outbreaks in Germany, France, Spain and the USA. to Unite

Bev Clarkson of The Union says: "Unite, warned that the coronavirus outbreaks in meat processing establishments in the whole of the UK probably."

Why are meat Workers always coronavirus?

people get infected with coronavirus by droplets coughed may, sneezed, or exhaled by an infected person.

The infection can touch through close contact with the person, or from infected surfaces.

"the factories and in particular indoor areas, which is cold and humid, are perfect environments for corona virus to linger and spread," according to Lawrence Young, Professor of Molecular Oncology at the University of Warwick.

"Virus-containing droplets from infected individuals are more likely to spread, settle down and remain viable. "

Another possible factor in this cooled work places, machines, the talk requires people to, loud or yelling loud, leading to an increase in the spread of infected droplets.

What conditions is work?

It is hard to keep the Workers two meters away from each other, if you are working on high-speed production lines, and The Absence of natural light can also help to survive The Virus .

"If you people are right next to each other, work hard - Because , of course, this is a difficult Job and breathing hard, you have A Chance for the spread of viruses of an infected Person to many of the people in the vicinity," said Tara Smith , a professor of epidemiology at Kent State University in Ohio.

"And Then you must, of course, a chain of Domino stones. "

There is no evidence that the meat products themselves can be a source of Covid-19 infection on the plants.

it was very unlikely that you will be transferred coronavirus from the food could catch, Because that's not how it is known.

It is not only the conditions inside the facility that may increase The Risk of coronavirus.

"Some of these factories on-site or in the vicinity of the property, where there are several people in each dormitory. They can be transported on a bus to the place of work, and you will be indoors together all day," said Michael Head , senior research fellow in global health at the University of Southampton.

The Unite union, says that, while it represents many of the Workers in the meat processing sector, the plants are often migrant Workers , who are not entitled to full continued payment of wages and, thus, could lose money, if you self-isolate, to the sick.

The Union says that they do not often speak English as a first language and are worried about losing their jobs, so may only concerns, are reluctant to to.

The British Meat Processors Association (BMPA) said, Reality Check , that most of the Workers are its members, plant employees, rather than employees of the Agency.

to protect What is done to the Workers ?

The government has a secure work in the food production - including the employees, at least two feet apart, if possible.

The BMPA has also issued guidance, including the cleaning of factories, more often than usual, isolated employees to develop the symptoms, and the staggering of the start times and break times.

It also proposes the provision of additional personal protective equipment (PPE) such as face shields, if available - Staff in meat-processing facilities in General, the PSA, but this may not necessarily masks.

Dr. Yvonne Doyle, medical Director at Public Health England, said the organisation is consulting on A Number of outbreaks in the factories, some of which involved meat processing was.

"Where outbreaks occur, we work closely with the NHS Test, and Trace, to ensure appropriate audit and tracking of contacts, both inside and outside of the workplace. Where necessary, mobile testing units are used to ensure large workforces tested immediately. "

In Germany, the government is the prohibition of the outsourcing of the slaughterhouse employees Workers must be employed directly by The Company .

A source close to Defra in the UK, told The Bbc that another one of the factors, as seen in Germany, is the poor training and poor knowledge of the language of the predominantly Eastern European Workers in the meat processing industry, The Rules prevented be followed. to brake

in the USA has recommended, production lines, physical barriers between the employees, so that everyone wear face coverings, and to ensure that no one would lose money, Because of self-isolation.
