Disgusting

From CNN, “One of the country’s largest pork processing facilities is closing until further notice as employees fall ill with Covid-19. The closure puts the country’s meat supply at risk, said the CEO of Smithfield, which operates the plant.” Let’s make a couple of assumptions here. First, employees are transmitting SARS 2 to each other at work. And second, apparently, these plants are just as disgusting as I never wanted to imagine. Shouldn’t these workers be practicing the highest and strictest of cleanliness and presumably personal hygiene practices? Given the most likely method of spreading SARS 2 is coughing or sneezing and not washing hands, then how is this being spread in a facility where people should not be openly coughing and sneezing and should be washing hands and everything else obsessively? All this reinforces my notion that people are just f***ing generally disgusting, especially those who handle our food!
