So there are wait times for COVID-19 testing for visitors to Beijing - the longest wait time is 3 months?? That's cheap testing - "did he die yet?"

Mother finished off my lilies. Andy is on his own.

Similar thing happened in germany recently They are cold. But a lot of other food plants are also cold which also require people to work closely together. If you have been handling raw meat you are less likely to 'touch your face' without washing your hands, so that is one of the main (so we are reliably informed) routes for infection with viruses that is not available. Are people continually shouting at each other from close up because of noise? I wouldn't have thought there is an awful lot to talk/shout about in that line of work. So seriously why meat packing plants?

So seriously why meat packing plants? Some thoughts.... Breath condenses allowing virus particles to hang in the air longer. How much do they recirculate air to maintain cold temps. Natures way for punishing them for involvement of killing animals and high co2 emissions.
