This summer, more than a thousand employees of the meat union factory in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany’s largest meat processing company, contracted the novel coronavirus. Now, the group’s meat union factory in Saxony-Anhardt has been exposed to have a concentrated coronavirus infection.

According to a German media report on December 2nd local time, the large-scale COVID-19 test carried out by the meat federation factory recently showed that 172 employees tested positive. At present, Tunnis Group plans to place these employees in separate quarantine areas and carry out a new round of virus testing this week. The local government has talked with the relevant leaders of Tunnis Group, hoping to effectively block the infection chain through means, including isolation and testing.

It is reported that the meat union factory involved has about 2,200 employees, which is the second largest meat union factory of Tunnis Group in Saxony-Anhardt. However, at present, the meat joint factory has not been suspended.
